## Our Mission

Umbra Linux is a distribution based on **Linux From Scratch 12.3 (systemd)**. It offers the educational and transparent foundation of LFS, combined with a **ready-to-use user experience** – no manual [[compiling]] needed.

#### Three prebuilt desktop configurations:

1. **Umbra Linux Classic** – A lightweight, clean experience inspired by macOS:
XFCE + Docky delivers elegance and simplicity. Great for newcomers and those who want a familiar layout.

2. **Umbra Linux Flux** – For power users and tiling window manager fans:
Wayland + Sway gives you full control with a fast, minimalist interface and CLI-focused tools.

3. **Umbra Linux Studio** – Based on **Umbra Classic**, tailored for musicians:
Comes with **REAPER** preinstalled, plus LV2/VST plugin support and JACK/PipeWire audio routing. Fully configured to work out of the box.

πŸ”Ή **Powered by systemd** – modern service management
πŸ”Ή **Includes developer and multimedia tools**
πŸ”Ή **Minimal by default** – no extra software you don’t need
πŸ”Ή **Great for learning** – transparent LFS base for those curious about Linux internals.
