End of 2014 is approaching and it’s time to look for what’s coming in year 2015 for Linux. Well, there will be plenty of things such as Ubuntu Phone, Tizen Phone, Linux based DIY microcomputers, new Linux releases etc. Among all these, there are three beautiful Linux distributions that are slotted for a stable release in 2015. Let’s have a look at them.
3 beautiful Linux OS coming in 2015
Evolve OS
Evolve OS is ‘evolved’ from once popular and now discontinued Solus OS.
Though it’s not entirely based on SolusOS as it is partly written from
scratch. It will be using a forked version of PiSi package manager.
Evolve OS is currently in alpha stage of development.
The most eye catching thing about Evolve
OS is its default desktop environment Budgie Desktop. Budgie, which is
based on GNOME 3, resembles Chrome OS and looks elegant.
Ozon OS
I bet you have heard of Numix Project.
They have given us the aesthetic Numix theme that has the capability to
make any desktop environment look more beautiful. No wonder Numix
themes are always considered as one of the best themes for Ubuntu or for any Linux OS for that matter.
So the guys at Numix decided to move from artworks and started working on a Linux distribution of their own. It is named Ozon OS
and it is currently in Alpha stage. The default desktop will be similar
to GNOME Shell but not exactly the same. Of course, we can expect Ozon
to be beautiful on the credibility of Numix artworks in the past.
Elementary OS Freya
Elementary OS
has always been ‘accused’ of being inspired form OS X. I do not think
that it is that bad a thing because OS X definitely has got some looks.
No wonder that some users even try to make Ubuntu look like Mac OS X.
Unlike Evolve and Ozon, Elementary OS
has already seen the light of the day with Elementary OS Luna and
Jupiter. Unlike Ubuntu and other OS, Elementary OS does not follow a
strict release schedule. Currently in beta stage, it is expected to
arrive in first quarter of 2015 but there are no definite dates so far.
Oh! Did I tell you the story behind Elementary OS changing its name from Isis to Freya?
When it comes to beauty in Linux, Pear OS
will always be remembered. I know there could be some other Linux
distributions worthy of being in this list. Care to mention your
favorites? Feel free to hit the comment section.
