Everything We Do is Open Source Our platform itself is entirely open source, and it's built upon a strong foundation of Free & Open Source software (like GNU/Linux). Plus, we actively collaborate within the ecosystem to improve it for everyone. Explore Our Stack Secure & Privacy-respecting When source code is available to audit, anyone--a security researcher, a concerned user, or an OEM shipping the OS on their hardware--can verify that the software is secure and not collecting or leaking personal information. Security Notices Built for Developers Whether your app could benefit from a new system feature or API or you're curious as to how an existing feature or design pattern was built, you have complete access to our source code. Copy it, learn from it, remix it, modify it, and redistribute it. Get Involved elementary OS Keyboard Shortcuts User Friendly. And Keyboard Friendly. elementary OS is designed to be easy to understand and pick up as a new user. But that doesn't mean it's dumbed down; powerful, customizable keyboard shortcuts ensure you'll stay productive whether it's your first day or your thousandth. Privacy-respecting. Through and through. Your data always belongs to you, and only you. We don't make advertising deals or collect sensitive personal data. We're funded directly by our users paying what they want for elementary OS and apps on AppCenter. And that's how it should be. Our Privacy Policy Tattle-Tale elementary OS helps you keep tabs on what apps are up to. When an app is using your microphone, we display an indicator to let you know. When an app is using a lot of energy, we tell you in your power indicator. Permissions When an app wants access to your data or devices, it has to ask up front. We review all AppCenter apps to ensure they're properly using permissions--and you can always revoke them yourself in System Settings. Housekeeping elementary OS automatically keeps your temporary and trashed files tidied up. Not only does this keep your device's storage free, it can help ensure your private data doesn't come back to haunt you. elementary OS logo Download elementary OS The thoughtful, capable, and ethical replacement for Windows and macOS Pay What You Can "elementary OS is different... a beautiful and powerful operating system."
