About Manjaro Linux

Manjaro takes Arch Linux as its base and packages it for a wider audience. It follows a rolling release model, so software stays current without reinstalling for new versions. Updates pass through staged branches, which the project calls cascading stability, so you can choose how new or how tested your packages are.

It comes in several desktop editions and suits both home and business use. The project is backed by Manjaro GmbH & Co. KG, which also sells support services to organisations.
