Debian

Ubuntu is not just an operating system, it’s a community, a philosophy and a path to freedom. Let’s dive into this exciting world and learn more about what makes Ubuntu so popular.

🔶 Debian philosophy:

Debian adheres to the principles of free and open source software. Debian’s main goal is to create an operating system that is completely free to use, distribute, learn and modify.

🌍 Stability and Reliability:

Debian is known for its reliability. It has three main branches – “Stable”, “Testing” and “Unstable”. “Stable” is a release that has been thoroughly tested and is ready for production use. “Testing” is preparation for the next stable release, and “Unstable” is active development. This allows users to choose between stability and the latest features.

📦 Package management:

Debian uses the APT (Advanced Package Tool) package management system, which makes installing, updating and uninstalling programs simple and easy.

🛠️ Variety of options:

Debian provides several different options, including “Debian GNU/Linux” with different desktop environments, “Debian GNU/kFreeBSD” based on the FreeBSD kernel, and many others.

💬 Community:

One of the most valuable aspects of Debian is its huge and friendly community. You can always get support and help from other Debian users and developers.
