Simon Peter, the creator of the AppImage self-contained package format, has released version 0.8.1 of the helloSystem distribution, based on FreeBSD 13. It is positioned as a system for everyday users looking to transition from macOS, dissatisfied with Apple's policies. The system is free of the complexities found in modern Linux distributions, is under full user control, and allows former macOS users to feel comfortable. For familiarization with the distribution, a bootable image has been created, sized at 941 MB (torrent). <\/p>\n
The interface resembles macOS and features two panels \u2014 a top panel with a global menu and a bottom panel with an application dock. The global menu and status bar are powered by the panda-statusbar package, developed by the CyberOS distribution (formerly PandaOS). The application dock is based on the cyber-dock project's work, also from the developers of CyberOS. For file management and placing shortcuts on the desktop, the Filer file manager is developed, based on pcmanfm-qt from the LXQt project. By default, the Falkon browser is offered, but Firefox and Chromium are available as options. Applications are supplied in standalone packages, and the launch utility is used to start applications, which finds the program and analyzes errors during execution. <\/p>\n
The project is developing a series of its own applications, such as a configurator, installer, mountarchive utility for mounting archives in the file system tree, a data recovery tool for ZFS, a disk splitting interface, a network setup indicator, a screenshot creation utility, a Zeroconf server browser, a volume control indicator, and a boot environment configuration utility. Python and the Qt library are used for development. Among the supported components for application development, listed in order of preference, are PyQt, QML, Qt, KDE Frameworks, and GTK. ZFS is used as the main file system, and UFS, exFAT, NTFS, EXT4, HFS+, XFS, and MTP are supported for mounting.
