A Small Linux Distro Project (Zyphor OS) — I Need Guidance

Showcase
1

Hello everyone, I’m currently building a small Linux distribution called Zyphor OS, which is based on Debian and uses the default Kali Linux build scripts as a starting point, but it is still very early and far from finished.

I am still a beginner and self-taught developer, and I created this project mainly to learn how Linux systems and distributions are built internally.

I know I still have a lot to understand, so I am humbly sharing it with the community in hopes of receiving feedback, guidance, and corrections from more experienced developers.

If anyone is willing to take a look at my Github or give advice on improving structure, build process, or best practices, I would be very grateful.

Thank you very much for your time and kindness.

Keeping an eye on this. Stared it for now. Try to get listed on https://distrowatch.com/ once annouced there you’ll get most users who love testing and trying out new distros.

Thanks! That’s a great point. I’m still in early development, but getting Zyphor OS on DistroWatch is definitely one of my goals once it’s ready for a wider audience. :slight_smile:
