About Drauger OS
What is Drauger OS?
Drauger OS is a Desktop Linux Gaming Operating System.
Our aim is to provide a platform for gamers to get great performance without sacrificing security. From Keyboard and Mouse to a Full Flight Simulator, our goal is to make it easy for anyone to start playing their favorite games quickly.
Since
Drauger OS is based on
Ubuntu LTS, it's secure, stable and will continue to recieves regular updates even if your version of Drauger OS isn't currently supported by our Developers.
What Drauger OS is NOT
Drauger OS is NOT for everyday use.
For this reason, it does not come with some apps that you may find "common". Although they will still function,
Drauger OS does not come with audio or video editing software (i.e. Audacity and Kdenlive) nor an Office Suite (i.e. LibreOffice).
Furthermore,
Drauger OS is NOT based on:
Arch,
Fedora, or
Solus.
There are no plans to rebase
Drauger OS to another distro for various reasons. Most impotantly, the majority of other distributions would require copious amounts of work to get to the point we are at now.
This is not to say they are not good distributions, but rather they do not fit our vision of where to take
Drauger OS and do not fit our development process.
The Drauger OS vision of the Future
Drauger OS was created for several reasons.
The primary of which is that other gaming distributions were either abandoned, difficult to use, or did not have a strong community supporting them. To avoid the issues listed above, we observe the following tenets when developing
Drauger OS:
Continuity: We have structured
Drauger OS Development around a team concept and distributed leadership. That way, the project won't stop if a key member discontinues work.
Ease of Use: We aim to make
Drauger OS user-friendly. Specifically, we try to make tasks intuitive while also ensuring that software and hardware "just works".
Community Growth: We always welcome community engagement! The more we hear what people want, the better we can do. If you want to voice your opinion, check out our
Telegram Group,
Discord Server or
subreddit!
Make Support Easy: We work hard to make sure there are a number of ways anyone can contact the
Drauger OS Devs. The easiest ways are through the same methods listed in "Grow the Community" above.

With
Drauger OS being free and Open-Source, we accept contributions of all sorts: From

documentation, to

If you wish to contribute to
Drauger OS, please reach out to us. If you meet certain milestones, you may be listed on our

Right now, we especially need help with:
Code: Mostly Python and BASH, but also growing amounts of C++ and CSS.
Documentation: Man pages, README files, Change Logs, you name it.
If you want to contribute and have no programming experience, please consider handling documentation or language translations. All that is required is basic English literacy (and in the case of translations, literacy in another language).
