dahliaOS - modern, secure, lightweight and responsive operating system

[sterile mural]

Hi everyone!
I Thought I would use this opportunity to showcase a project I and a group of people have been working on for some time now.

dahliaOS is an open-source, community-driven operating system powered by Linux and inspired by the ideals of simplicity, elegance, and user freedom. It aims to provide a fast and versatile experience with a focus on privacy, security, and customization.

The key principles of our operating system:

1. Beautiful Design: We try to keep the design simple and minimalistic, yet very customizable. We keep improving our own style to make this operating system and its apps beautiful and intuitive.
2. Privacy and Security: In our eyes privacy is a important right which we take serious. We don't collect data about the user or their activities.
3. Customization: Users should have the possibility to customize their experience to their own liking. Thus we want to offer a wide range of options to personalize from themes over wallpapers to the way windows and overlays look.
4. Open-Source and Community-Driven: We thrive on the spirit of collaboration. Our project is completely free and open source allowing everyone to read the code and contribute in the development of the operating system and it's environment.
5. Multi-Platform and Ecosystem: Our apps, packages and tools are mostly written in Flutter and Dart. This not only allows easy maintenance, beautiful design and good performance but also gives some apps the ability to run on other platforms than just our own system. With that, we want to work on integration beyond just your computer.

This project and its software are still pre-release and should not be used in production as development is still in progress!

We're not AvdanOS or sth like that if you mean that

It used to look more like chromeos but we're going our own direction now

We actually don't have A12+ visuals. In fact I hate Material 3 lol
