About ZelixOS
A clean Linux desktop, built with care and precision.
ZelixOS is an independent, rolling-release Linux distribution based on Arch Linux. Featuring a bespoke monochrome KDE Plasma environment, dedicated in-house utilities, and zero bloatware.
Mission
Simplicity, freedom, and unified design
ZelixOS provides a ready-to-use, cohesive computing environment without the usual bloat. By combining the rolling-release agility of Arch Linux with a thoughtfully customized monochrome KDE Plasma desktop, it delivers a setup that is both aesthetically understated and technically powerful.
The system is tuned to remain responsive and stable across a wide spectrum of modern and legacy hardware—offering users a calm, focused workspace from the moment they boot.
ZelixOS was created by Yasir Peker under CyberPlus Studios to answer a simple need: an Arch-based system that looks beautifully consistent right out of the box without imposing unwanted default apps on the user.
