Welcome to the official GitHub organization of Gozjaro Linux — a minimalist, elegant, and fully customizable Linux distribution built from scratch, powered by Pacman.
Gozjaro is not just a distro. It's a blank canvas for developers, power users, and curious minds who want to build their systems from the ground up — with full control, high performance, and no unnecessary bloat.
Gozjaro Linux is:

- Ships as a terminal-only ISO
- Desktop Environment agnostic — you choose what to install
- Aimed at power users and developers
