Yep, Endless OS is built on Debian, although it has an immutable root filesystem with ostree. Users don't really touch Debian packages. System updates (and rollbacks) all happen atomically, with a reboot. This is a bit more ordinary now, but Endless has been a pioneer in that space. For desktop apps, it is focused on Flatpak, including a large library of Endless-specific offline content and learning apps in its own flatpak repository. Many of these have moved to Flathub, such as https://www.flathub.org/apps/details/com.hack_computer.Clubh.... There is a lot of stuff in Endless OS to improve the experience for users with limited connectivity. That's why there are so many simple apps with big content libraries, why ostree is very useful, among other things. We do a lot of stuff upstream, but you can get a pretty good idea what we're all doing over at https://github.com/endlessm/. |
