Design

ShapeBit OS is an image-based Linux desktop operating system built on Fedora.

System areas

Each page describes the design. Where something is not built yet, the page says so.

  • Base System — supported hardware, disk layout, and home storage.
  • System Lifecycle — signing, boot trust, release channels, distribution, updates, rollback, and release withdrawal.
  • Security — disk encryption and the TPM unlock policy.
  • Recovery — the recovery key and when it is needed.
  • Desktop Environment — the session, bars, workspaces and windows, dictation, the assistant, Settings, and Welcome as built; the future design of menus, the Shelf, and voice and gaze input.
  • Applications — built-in apps, third-party app installation, browsers, and AppImage.
