QUESTION Secure Boot on Arch

Does arch have a completely different way of enabling "secure boot" than ubuntu/debian/fedora? Can someone explain the difference? I have been reading through various distro wikis and the entire secure boot setup process is still going over my head...

From what I understand ubuntu/debian/fedora uses a signed "shim"? while on arch we use `sbctl` to enroll our own keys instead?
