BashCore is a Debian-based live Linux distribution tailored for security professionals, networking enthusiasts, and students. It’s offered in multiple editions to suit different needs and workflows.
The original BashCore release is a lightweight, command-line-only system built on Debian’s Oldstable branch, providing a minimal and efficient environment. BashCoreX expands on this with the Xfce desktop, several privacy-focused web browsers, and a selection of productivity applications.
The BashCoreZ, BashCoreT, and BashCoreTX editions are based on Debian Stable and range from ultra-minimal configurations to a fully featured Xfce desktop experience.
Finally, BashLabOS is designed as a general-purpose distribution for everyday computing. It includes the Xfce desktop along with applications such as GIMP, LibreOffice, and multiple web browsers. Across its editions, the distribution incorporates Tor and other privacy-enhancing tools.
BashCore is distributed under the MIT License.

What's a Linux distribution ("distro")? |
| A distro provides the user with a desktop environment, preloaded applications, and ways to update and maintain the system. Each distro makes different choices, deciding which open source projects to install and provides custom written programs. They can have different philosophies. Some distros are intended for desktop computers, some for servers without a graphical interface, and others for special uses. Because Linux is an open source operating system, combinations of software vary between Linux distros. |
