Pardus is a Debian-based distro which combines stability and efficiency oriented corporate usage characteristics with speed and up-to-date oriented end user needs.
The main versions developed under the umbrella of Pardus are products with priority support. XFCE and Server Editions are the preferred versions of these products, which meet personal needs as well as corporate needs. The GNOME version, on the other hand, is published in order to contribute to the community ecosystem and increase the diversity offered to the end user, as well as corporate solutions.

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. |
