Hello, everyone!!

I’m excited to share Vortex Linux, a cutting-edge Linux distribution designed with maximum security, flexibility, and stability in mind. Vortex Linux integrates containers and virtual machines (VMs) to create an immutable, atomic operating system that caters to users of all levels.

Key Features of Vortex Linux:

Immutable and Atomic: Vortex Linux ensures system stability with an immutable base system, allowing for atomic updates and rollbacks. With Vortex, you can minimize the need for base system installations, reducing the risk of system breakage. If a container or VM fails, you can quickly switch to another without worry.

Seamless Integration: Install and manage packages using containers and VMs, providing unparalleled isolation and flexibility. You can even boot into a VM or install the kernel in a container for added customization.

Security First: Designed with security as a top priority, Vortex Linux offers advanced features to protect your system and data. With the "ship" tool, you can isolate USB devices, network connections, and more, enhancing security.

User-Friendly: Vortex Linux is accessible to everyone, from beginners to experts, with intuitive tools and a supportive community.

We’re Looking for Contributors!

As Vortex Linux continues to grow, we're actively seeking contributors to help shape its future. Whether you're a developer, tester, designer, or just passionate about Linux, your contributions are welcome, and we would love to see you on our Discord soon!

We understand that this approach might not be for everyone, and that’s okay. If you don’t like the idea, we respect that—but we’re committed to moving forward with our vision. For those who find the project intriguing and want to get involved, we’d love to have you on board. If you’re not interested in contributing, we’d still love to hear your opinions on interesting features that could make Vortex Linux even better. However, we do not welcome posts of discouragement, and we won't be engaging with such posts at this point.

How to Get Involved:

Join the Community: Connect with other users and developers on our Discord server. This is where everything happens, so if you’re interested in contributing, please join the Discord.

GitHub: Check out our Github Org (note: All code that has been worked on so far for the superutility "ship" is still available in the development branch only. Also, the links in the organization do not work, and this is expected behavior until further progress is made).

Website: Visit our website for more information.

Contribute: Please join the Discord so that we can keep track of everyone helping out. Once you join, ask for the "dev" role to gain access to the dev channels. Depending on your contributions, we’ll add you to the organization.
