Since I left behind closed-source operating systems such as Windows, I discovered how liberating it is to have an OS that truly belongs to you.

This comes with some drawbacks, though. While there's a lot of really good open-source software on Linux, most of it lacks a good user experience, which can often scare non-technical users who want to try Linux as their main OS (think of someone coming from Photoshop trying GIMP).

I was one of those users. While I was always familiar with programming, I also have other passions, such as graphic design and music making.

I spent 1 year trying to switch to Linux completely, and in the end, I figured that the problem was the lack of support for essential software such as the Adobe apps, FL Studio, Ableton, etc.

That's why I set the goal of someday having a solid suite of essential software that can be used by regular users who want to use a good, performant, debloated, and free OS with good tools to go through their day-to-day life.

My current focus and the foundation for all of this is my code editor, Kosmos. With this project, I'm aiming to provide a highly flexible tool for developers who want to be in control of their workspace.

The next step is Etxe, an Arch-based operating system that goes the extra mile to provide a friendly user experience to Linux beginners or people who don't even care about the technology under the hood, as long as it meets their needs.
