Linux Mint

Linux Mint is an operating system for desktop and laptop computers, designed to work 'out of the box' and comes fully equipped with the apps most people need. It is described as one of the most popular desktop Linux distributions and used by millions of people, and as one of the best alternatives to Microsoft Windows and Apple MacOS. The project is community-driven, free of cost and open source, and based on Debian and Ubuntu.

In 2006, Clement Lefebvre, a French developer now commonly known as "Clem", was writing reviews and tutorials for various Linux sites. To host his own articles he started a website called "Linux Mint". After a time, he began to get a flavour for what the community wanted out of a distribution and started implementing solutions to common problems. In August of 2006, Linux Mint 1.0 "Ada", based on Kubuntu 6.06 was released. In November 2006, he switched to a GNOME desktop with Linux Mint 2.0 "Barbara", based on Ubuntu 6.10. In 2021 Linux Mint celebrated its 15th anniversary.

Easy to use, fast and comfortable; works out of the box; community-driven; free of cost and open source.
