Hey all! Been working on a custom distro from scratch for about a month now. My goal is for it to eventually be completely dependency free (minus the kernel ofc), but we have some rn:
openssl
grub
glibc
Everything is written in C, using a super cool Make-based build system. You can download prebuilt ISOs from .

Hello , first post here. I've been using Linux for about a year now and have taken an interest in developing my own distro.
I've been gathering up some of my ideas for a small amount of time and now want to share them to get some feedback or possible suggestions.
I don't have a certain name in mind, however ThrashOS is the current working name, considering one of its key points is its heavy usage of Bash at its core - making it insanely extensible and customisable. Since I'm still not 100% familiar with all the ins and outs of distro developing yet, I want to keep things small and minimal so the user can almost adapt things for themselves.
I have a more full idea dump in a proton doc, you can see it here:
Overall, I feel like I've got the makings of a potential surviving distro however I just don't really know where to start so if anyone could give guidance or point to any good resources or provide feedback then that would be greatly appreciated.
