> Calamares is a distribution-independent system installer, with an advanced partitioning
> feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations. Calamares is designed to
> be customizable by distribution maintainers without the need for cumbersome patching,
> thanks to third-party branding and external modules support.
## Target Audience
Calamares is a Linux installer; users who install Linux on a computer will hopefully
use it just **once**, to install their Linux distribution. Calamares is not
a "ready to use" application: distributions apply a huge amount of customization
and configuration to Calamares, and the target audience for this repository
is those distributions, and the people who make those Linux distros.
Calamares has some [generic user documentation](https://calamares.io/docs/users-guide/)
for end-users, but most of what we have is for distro developers.
## Getting Calamares
Clone Calamares from GitHub. The default branch is called *calamares*.
```
git clone https://github.com/calamares/calamares.git
```
Calamares is a KDE-Frameworks and Qt-based, C++17, CMake-built application.
The dependencies are explained in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
## Contributing to Calamares
Calamares welcomes PRs. New issues are welcome, too.
There are both the Calamares **core** repository (this one)
and an **extensions** repository ([Calamares extensions](https://github.com/calamares/calamares-extensions)).
Contributions to code, modules, documentation, the wiki, and the website are all welcome.
There is more information in the [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) file.
## Join the Conversation
GitHub Issues are **one** place for discussing Calamares if there are concrete
problems or a new feature to discuss.
Issues are not a help channel.
Visit Matrix for help with configuration or compilation.
Regular Calamares development chit-chat happens in a [Matrix](https://matrix.org/)
room, `#calamares:kde.org`. Responsiveness is best during the day
in Europe, but feel free to idle.
Matrix is persistent, and we'll see your message eventually.
