Nitrux, a beautiful Linux distribution based on Ubuntu

In this article we will take a look at Nitrux, this distribution of Linux based on Ubuntu with an excellent design and I bet that more than one will give you the desire to try it. Nitrux comes with its Nomad desktop environment which is built on KDE Plasma 5 and QT, Nomad takes the best of this environment to present a visually appealing desktop, which personally reminds me a lot of Pantheon.

The distribution also takes some KDE applications and makes use of the application appimage format with which it happens to differ a lot from other distributions based on Ubuntu.

This is the interesting thing about Nitrux, because its developers venture to offer the user something new and that without doubts from my perspective and many distributions should begin to offer.

Nomad Desktop

The Nomad desktop improves the user experience, since it includes other additional functions which make it more functional, since its objective is to be adaptable without losing its aesthetics or functionality.

 The developers of Nitrux have well-aimed their objective because they do not focus on a single sector of users, they intend using Nomad Desktop to capture both newcomers, as well as more advanced users, thanks to its flexibility.

 On the other hand Nitrux like most Linux distributions has a software center. Which was built from scratch to have a better integration with QT desktops.

Unlike other distros with their software centers, Nitrux does not search for applications within official repositories as you might expect, but thanks to being built from scratch, this allows you to search, install and manage AppImage applications .

Since developers argue that this type of format is faster to install, easier to create and more secure to run. The AppImages aim to work in any distribution or device, from IoT devices to servers, desktops to mobile devices. The Nomad Software Center focuses on new application distribution technologies and aims to facilitate the user to navigate, test and install applications and update without fear of disastrous results.

Installing an application is easy!

When you have found the application you want, simply click on the "Get" button and start downloading and installing. In addition, together with Nomad we find the following package of programs that make up the distro:

Dolphin, file manager.
Kate, advanced text editor.
Ark, compression tool.
Konsole, terminal emulator.
Chromium, web browser.
Babe, music player. VLC, multimedia player.
ONLYOFFICE, collaborative office suite.

 It is also important to know that the requirements to use this distro should be taken into account, because they are the following:

Minimum requirements to use Nitrux:

CPU 2.5 GHz Dual Core 64-bit
2GB RAM
5.0GB disk space
32MB VRAM OpenGL 2.1 Support

Nitrux has a fresher versión

 Last but not least, the distribution has been updated a few hours ago, so it reaches its version 1.0.10 in which it has updated some of its tools and added some new improvements to the system. Within the updates has been updated the Linux Kernel which in this version 1.0.10 will default to Kernel 4.15.14.

The software center has also been updated as well as the version of KDE Plasma 5.12.80 which is taken as the basis for Nomad. In the KDE applications, those of version 18.07.70 are used and support for VMware has also been added. Finally, a tool was added for the integration of appimages, character support for the Chinese and Japanese languages, and support for EFI mode was added.

This version, in comparison to the others offered by openSUSE, is a Rolling Release version. In this case I decided to install openSUSE Tumbleweed because it is boring and tiresome to have to update a system every time there is a new version, that's why I like the systems more relaying. For those who do not know this model, I will tell you a little, the rolling reads this is always in continuous development as it refers to a software system in constant development, we will always have the latest but stable. Without more, we will start with the installation process, there are many people who think that the system is intended for advanced users, when it is not, for those who are new to Linux they should only do their part and have patience.
