This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/ANBERNIC

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • arkos

    Another rockchip Operating System

  • - ArkOS development has been fairly active, with numerous updates for 353 devices released throughout November/December.

  • distribution

    Discontinued Home of the JELOS Linux distribution. (by JustEnoughLinuxOS)

  • - JELOS's developers have moved away from releasing public binaries, now developing their project as sourcecode only, and are dropping support for Anbernic's ARM-based devices like the 353 series to focus on newer and more capable x86-based devices.... but leaving the option open for others to continue to support these devices using JELOS's exisiting code, to build and/or release their own binaries as they see fit.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Lakka-LibreELEC

    Lakka is a lightweight Linux distribution that transforms a small computer into a full blown game console.

  • - Still no sign of a build of Lakka for the 353 series... Lakka is the official Linux distribution of Retroarch/Libretro, which powers many of the emulators on these firmwares behind the scenes.

  • UnofficialOS

    Home of the uOS Linux distribution.

  • - UnofficialOS (or "uOS" for short), a volunteer project powered by JELOS and run by the two-dev team RetroGFX and oOblik, has already begun to release public builds based on JELOS, figuring things out along the way, and continuing support for the 353 series.

  • AmberELEC

    Handheld firmware optimized for the Anbernic RG351P/M/V/MP, RG552 and other compatible devices.

  • - AmberELEC (formerly 351ELEC) has just announced that their releases will be expanded to include builds for 353 devices, applying JELOS's prior work to speed things along, with a public release to come "when it's done."

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
