What is blendOS?

blendOS is a declarative, immutable, and atomic operating system built on Arch Linux. It provides a stable base system that can be customized with packages, kernels, drivers, and desktop environments through a declarative configuration file. The atomic update mechanism ensures clean transitions between system states by replacing the entire root filesystem, preventing broken installations.

The system supports Flatpak applications natively and allows integration of Arch Linux and AUR packages via the /system.yaml file. Additionally, blendOS extends compatibility to applications from Android, Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, and other distributions through podman containers, enabling users to run diverse software without risking system integrity. Its immutable nature protects against accidental system damage, making it user-friendly for troubleshooting and daily use.

Features

  • Declarative Configuration: Customize packages, kernels, drivers, and desktop environments on a minimal Arch Linux base using a declarative approach
  • Atomic Updates: Replace the old root filesystem with a new one cleanly to avoid broken system states
  • Extensible Container Support: Run applications and binaries from Android, Fedora, Debian, CentOS Stream, and Ubuntu via podman containers without breaking the system
  • Immutable System: Prevent accidental system damage by protecting system directories and making troubleshooting intuitive
  • Flatpak and AUR Integration: Support Flatpak applications out-of-the-box and Arch Linux/AUR packages through the /system.yaml file

Use Cases

  • Running Android applications on a Linux desktop environment
  • Managing software from multiple Linux distributions on a single system
  • Ensuring system stability with atomic updates and immutable file systems
  • Customizing an Arch Linux-based OS with declarative configurations
  • Using containers to isolate applications and prevent system conflicts
