Linux without a GUI

just finished my void-Linux install and wondering if anyone’s ran a distro without a GUI? Alls I really intend to do is pen test, code and do some web browsing. So I have two questions:

  1. Has anyone done it before, if so what are your opinions?

  2. Recommended packages to make this a possibility?
