Last updated 10 months ago

The concept behind Penguins's eggs stems from the idea of reproduction and population selection applied to operating systems.

During the era of popular remastering programs like Remastersys and Systemback, both of which experienced maintenance issues and were eventually abandoned, the need for a new, modern tool became evident. The inspiration for Penguins' Eggs led to the development of a new tool written in a modern, cross - distribution language, utilizing its own packaging system. Initially built with nodejs and later transitioning to Typescript as the primary development language, the tool's design resembles an egg production process, consisting of operations such as produce for creating the eggs, and other commands like kill for removing produced ISOs, update for software updates, and install for configuring the graphical installer.

The eggs tool is written primarily in TypeScript, Penguins' eggs is designed to be compatible with various Linux distributions, despite differences in package managers, file paths, and more. The tool currently supports Debian, Devuan, Ubuntu, Arch, Manjaro, and their derivatives, across multiple architectures including amd64, i386, and arm64. With the release of version 9.6.x, Penguins' eggs is now available as a Debian package, catering to a wide range of systems including PCs, older machines, and single - board ARM systems like the Raspberry Pi, across amd64, i386, and arm64 architectures.
