Areas for Development

To build a world-class operating system for end users, we require developers. There are a number of core projects, and several sub-projects open for people to work on.

Core Projects

These include but are not limited to: Core Operating System team in conjunction with the RPM5 distribution project, the Desktop, Workstation, and Server teams, Quality Assurance team, and Security Packaging team.

Sub-projects Related to AltimatOS' Development:

These sub-projects are under heavy development to allow us to deliver the best experience we can to our future users. If you are a developer, we'd love to have your help realising our dream of an open, easy to use and learn, and fun desktop operating system. Please stop by our IRC channel, #altimatos on irc.freenode.net to talk with the development team to get involved.

  • AI - The AltimatOS Installer
  • WWW - Developing our website
  • Foremand - Our RPM build daemon
  • PHADS - Painless Hardware Autoconfiguration & Detection

To get involved with the development of AltimatOS, or one of the various sub-projects, join our developer IRC channel #altimatos-devel on the irc.freenode.net network and join the AltimatOS mailing list to discuss the development of the operating system.
