From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nice one! Thank you.

Bad news, the developer haven't got much time maintaining it.

I currently have not enough time to maintain this project on the level required and which the project deserves. For this reason I'm asking the community to help supporting the project, to help and work on resolving issues and create new features. Thanks for all your help.

God news, it's written in Rust and I was about to make something similar using Rust. I guess, this means I could try jumping in.:)
