+The default ISO image provides 4 flavors: base, just-x, gtk-only and the +full desktop. SliTaz can also be booted from the web, customized to match +any needs and installed on a wide range of devices from old computers, to +powerful servers and small ARM devices such as the Raspberry Pi. +
++SliTaz is easy to use for Linux beginners: we provide a full featured +and modern desktop following the Freedektop standards with home made +tools that let users configure graphicaly the entire system. The full +system can even be controled remotly with our web based configuration +panel. +
+ ++We provides a base system and a stripped down X system from which you can +build your own custimozed distro. The custom system can them be used +from a cdrom, usb stick, sdcard, installed to HD or booted from the web. +
++Follow UNIX philosophy: everything is text file. Our packages manager +and all system settings are stored in simple text files for easy +customization and human readable configurations. Use SHell scripting +for most tools, again for easy customization and developement. +
++Radicaly simple way to boot using 4 scripts to configure the entire +system, handle boot options, manage networking and run local commands. +SliTaz loads the minimal and let users control everything else. +
++Be able to run completly in RAM memory from a LiveCD, an usb stick or +frugal HD install. This mod allows you to save documents on a mounted +partition while the system stays super fast and response. +
++Structured network with deep SliTaz integration for easy navigations +between all sites. Structured developement: with Mercurial and cuctom +tools such as the bug tracker and the cookutils. +
