NuTyX bills itself as a complete Linux distribution with high flexibility, thanks to the collections and the groups concepts.
It’s designed for people who want to commit themselves to developing their skills further and learning how a Linux system is put together.
The hierarchical ports collection system provides maximum flexibility in managing software. Each collection is responsible for a set of functionnality. The base system, command lines applications and libraries, graphical interface and graphical libraries, all the desktops and non-graphicals or graphicals applications.
It has a totally unique package manager made of expandable modules, with no dependencies except glibc.

What's a Linux distribution ("distro")? |
A distro provides the user with a desktop environment, preloaded applications, and ways to update and maintain the system. Each distro makes different choices, deciding which open source projects to install and provides custom written programs. They can have different philosophies. Some distros are intended for desktop computers, some for servers without a graphical interface, and others for special uses. Because Linux is an open source operating system, combinations of software vary between Linux distros. |
