This wiki is using a new system to manage translations to non-English languages. View [[Special:PageTranslation]] for a list of pages that have been chosen to be translated. We ask that all translators focus on these pages -- the list will expand in the future. To translate a page, {{CreateAccount}}, log in, and then click the "Translate this page" link at the top of the page. Translation is easy -- you can translate the page piece by piece so it is manageable. This new system is designed to keep translations up-to-date so that our non-English documentation remains current.

=== Distinctives ===


Funtoo Linux is a meta-distribution, which means it is built (fully automatically) with the functionality and optimizations that ''you'' want, not what some distro maintainer thought was best for you. Packages are installed directly from source code, thanks to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage_(software) Portage ports system], inspired by the FreeBSD ports system, written in Python and with full advanced package management functionality. We use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) Git] for all our development, and we also use Git to deliver our ports tree to you.
'''Funtoo is similar to Gentoo, but take heed -- it is also different!''' Our distinctives all stem from our [[Wolf Pack Philosophy|different approach to community]]. If you are new to Funtoo, please familiarize yourself with Funtoo's [[Wolf Pack Philosophy]]. It will help you to understand what Funtoo is all about. And the second half of the page will explain some key technical differences in comparison to Gentoo.


In contrast to Gentoo Linux, we offer a number of innovations, including our extensive use of git, [[Funtoo Profiles|our profile system]], [[Package:Boot-Update|boot-update]] boot management tool, our incredibly flexible [[Funtoo Linux Networking|template-based networking scripts]], [[Metro Quick Start Tutorial|Metro]] distribution build system, support of Debian, RHEL and other kernels, user-centric distribution model, and a large number of community infrastructure improvements.
You are welcome to contribute Funtoo Linux development via [https://code.funtoo.org code.funtoo.org] without going through any special procedure or complicated approval process. See [[Development Guide]] for more information on how to contribute to Funtoo. We also have [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2YVrx9jFJOd8aBrJBbXPir8zCMcK3Ip8 YouTube video tutorials] to help you get started. A key part of the Funtoo mission is supporting Funtoo users and assisting them in becoming productive and happy contributors to the project.

Welcome! Funtoo Linux (distrowatch) is a community-developed Linux meta-distribution and evolution of Gentoo Linux.

Funtoo is led by Daniel Robbins, the creator of Gentoo Linux, and actively developed by the Funtoo community. Install / Download / FAQ

Funtoo is similar to Gentoo, but take heed -- it is also different! Our distinctives all stem from our different approach to community. If you are new to Funtoo, please familiarize yourself with Funtoo's Wolf Pack Philosophy. It will help you to understand what Funtoo is all about. And the second half of the page will explain some key technical differences in comparison to Gentoo.

You are welcome to contribute Funtoo Linux development via code.funtoo.org without going through any special procedure or complicated approval process. See Development Guide for more information on how to contribute to Funtoo. We also have YouTube video tutorials to help you get started. A key part of the Funtoo mission is supporting Funtoo users and assisting them in becoming productive and happy contributors to the project.
