# KDE Linux
|
|
This is the repository for KDE Linux, codenamed "Project Banana": a KDE-owned general-purpose Linux®-based operating system.
|
|
|
|
The goal of KDE Linux is to create a bulletproof OS suitable for normal people, showcasing the best of KDE that we can proudly recommend to users and OEMs, with a coherent "here's how you get it" story.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Current state
|
|
KDE Linux has released the *Testing Edition*, which provides built-from-git-master versions of Plasma and KDE apps. **General daily driving should be usable for adventurous people with backups, but not yet for regular people.** See https://linux.kde.org for more details.
|
|
|
|
Note that the [QA & testing infrastructure](https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/os-autoinst-distri-kdelinux/-/work_items/2) needs more thoroughness and automation, so expect some bad builds from time to time that you'll need to roll back.
|
|
|
|
Finally, anything currently pre-installed may be removed before the beta release. Don't build mission-critical workflows around any of it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
