Welcome to CapivaraOS Docs¶
CapivaraOS is a family of Fedora-based Linux distributions built for developers: secure by default, with local AI and a full development environment ready at first boot.
These docs cover Series 2, built on Fedora 45. Documentation for earlier releases is still available in the Archive.
Choose your distro¶
| Distro | Desktop | Profile |
|---|---|---|
| Marsh | KDE Plasma 6.8 | The flagship edition, highly customizable |
| Pup | Xfce 4.20 | Light and fast, without giving up the toolkit |
| Snout | GNOME 51 | Clean and direct, with no layout changes |
All three ship the same toolkit and the same two exclusive applications: COS Dev Center and COS Config Center.
Server: Herd by CapivaraOS¶
Need a server? Herd by CapivaraOS is the headless line (no desktop) for physical machines, VMs and the cloud — with Cockpit, hardened security and compliance out of the box. See the Herd documentation.
