Welcome

Gigapuppy is devoted to the development of interesting builds (puplets) of puppy Linux. I have found puppy in all of its various forms and flavors to be my favorite current distro of Linux.

Puppy Linux is a long time work of Barry kauler http://www.puppylinux.org/ and is a very refined mini-distro of Linux. It is so well scripted that a user rarely uses the command line, truly the best complete GUI Linux I have tried of any size. Puppy runs on a wide variety of media ranging the gambit from flash drives through hard drives, Cd Roms etc. The support is very good for this distro with a large user base spread across the world, active forums with many interesting posts daily and a group of capable moderators.

Plug and play. no setup required
Works on almost all hardware platforms
Huge number of tested configured applications
FAST, after using Gigapuppy windows feels so slow.
A true portable desktop, plug it into almost any machine and YOUR personal system is up an running.

Due to the innovative nature of the puppy environment, puppy actively encourages modification, additions and experiments. Complete with many built in tools to remaster your own custom puplet.

In addition Barry and the new community sponsored groups have made a wide range of high quality developer tools available. I have been working with a number of custom puplets for everyday use, all of them are evolutionary as opposed to revolutionary, and build upon all that has come before.. Enjoy
