Segment 1 (Deep Dive)

  • Aurora Linux

  • Outline

  • A familiar KDE desktop for people who love Fedora Kinoite. Aurora is a maintenance-free, reliable and fast operating system for everyone, stable like a Chromebook. It combines the power of Fedora and the beauty of a KDE desktop in a single, reliable and sleek package. System updates are image-based and automatic. Applications are logically separated from the system by using Flatpaks for graphical applications and brew for command line applications. Workloads for development are containerized.
