  • From their readme:

    > SkiffOS is a lightweight operating system for any Linux-compatible computer, ranging from RPi, Odroid, NVIDIA Jetson, to Desktop PCs, Laptops (i.e. Apple MacBook), Phones (PinePhone), Containers, or Cloud VMs.

    > Uses Buildroot to produce a minimal "single-file" host OS as a standardized base cross-platform operating system "shim" for hosting containers. Most Linux platforms have widely varying requirements for kernel, firmware, and additional hardware support packages. The immutable SkiffOS host system contains everything needed to support the hardware, cleanly separated from the applications.
