Built the way you'd build it yourself
No default compromises. VeltrixOS gives you the tools and the foundation — you build the rest exactly the way you need it.
VPM — the source-based package manager
VPM is the heart of VeltrixOS: a package manager designed after Portage, where every package lands on your disk only after being built from source, locally, with flags tailored to your CPU.
- Source builds instead of binary distribution — full control over what enters your system
- USE flags to enable and disable package features at compile time
- Dependency resolution and system profiles inspired by Portage's proven model
A Linux From Scratch foundation
VeltrixOS isn't a layer on top of another distribution — the system is built from the ground up, in the spirit of LFS. That means transparency: you know exactly what your system is made of, and why.
- Zero hidden, unnecessary dependencies inherited from other distributions
- A predictable, auditable system base
- A solid foundation to build further with VPM
GNOME 46 on Wayland
A modern desktop environment with native Wayland support — smoother animations, better power management, and stronger application isolation than classic X11.
- GNOME 46 ready out of the box
- Wayland as the default display protocol
- A consistent, polished interface instead of a stack of legacy layers
The full picture
Everything that matters to you
VPM — package manager
A package manager inspired by Portage: every package is built from source, on your own hardware, with your own compile flags — no binary compromises.
LFS foundation
Built from the ground up in the spirit of Linux From Scratch — no hidden bloat, no unnecessary layers. You know exactly what you're running.
GNOME 46 + Wayland
A modern, fluid desktop environment with native Wayland support — no dependency on legacy X11.
Performance first
Every package compiled for your CPU and your flags. No unnecessary abstractions where speed matters.
Full control
USE flags, profiles, system snapshots — you decide what goes into your system and how it's built.
Active development
VeltrixOS is currently in its experimental phase. A stable release is coming — and you can watch, and help shape, that process from day one.
