4 weeks ago, an article was published called Top Linux Distributions To Look Forward To In 2020 and we're listed as the number 8 in it!
It's exciting for us to see that we're getting some reviews and features in articles, we hope you're as excited as we are!
We've released a new update for the online version of Pangolin and ported it over to our custom domain!
The web build from now on will automatically update itself so make sure to stay updated!
P.S You can also download it as PWA from the website for offline usage.
This release now features the Pangolin UI! Simply log in and follow the prompt on boot to start the GUI to use Pangolin, or interact with the system through a command line. This build does not run in QEMU and has very limited support in Virtualbox.

We opened a Twitter account just today!
It would mean a lot to us if you went over to check it and leave a follow!
We'll be posting a lot of cool stuff over there as we already do on our other social media platforms, listed below! We will be posting new releases there soon!
We are starting work on two new user shells called Starlight and Haven!
Starlight and Haven UIs will be more of a modern, simple, minimalistic design, different than Pangolin's material style design.
The new interfaces will follow a new design metaphor!
Just the basics
dahliaOS keeps things light by only including apps you need, and you can add all of your favorites from other operating systems using the Containers app. dahliaOS also provides a curated marketplace for third-party native Flutter applications, so you can use nearly every application within one system!.
A wide range of supported devices
dahliaOS provides a fast and stable experience on nearly every computer, from a 2004 desktop tower to the latest generation of mobile notebooks. Our dual kernel approach allows users with new(er) hardware to take advantage of the Zircon Kernel, while maintaining support for older devices using the Linux Kernel.
