  • os

    The OS build system (by elementary)

  • elementaryOS is licensed under GPLv3. You may absolutely sell hardware that comes with it pre-installed, so long as any modifications you have made to the software are also released under GPLv3. There are non-commercial licenses, but they are not free and open source.

  • installer

    Installer front-end for Linux-based OSes (by elementary)

  • But making an installer is hard to do from scratch. So you may want to modify an existing one, such as the one that elementaryOS uses, or the general-purpose calamares framework, in which case your installer is bound by the terms of their license to the extent you modified or are redistributing their code.

  • 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.

  • calamares

    Distribution-independent installer framework
