Endless OS 4.0 releases: Linux-based operating system
Endless OS is a Linux-based operating system that provides a simplified and streamlined user experience using a customized desktop environment forked from GNOME 3. Rather than using a traditional Linux package management system, Endless OS uses a read-only root file system managed by OSTree with application bundles overlaid on top.
