About Peppermint OS

Peppermint OS ships a working Xfce desktop with the Thunar file manager and little else beyond the core packages. You pick the applications that fit your needs rather than removing preinstalled ones.

It is built on the Debian and Devuan repositories using continuous delivery, with a Debian Trixie base and a Devuan release available. Documentation and repositories are hosted on Codeberg, and the community meets on Matrix, Discord, Telegram and a SourceForge forum.

Strengths

  • Very small default package set
  • Choice of Debian or Devuan base
