A community-maintained timeline of Linux distributions and their lineage, generated as SVG/PNG images from CSV source using gnuclad. It is accompanied by the Distroware info archive documenting Linux, BSD, and OpenSolaris distributions.
Use cases
- visualize the genealogy of Linux distributions over time
- find out which distro a distribution is derived from
- create a custom Linux distribution timeline SVG
- research the history of Linux distros for an article or presentation
- look up details about Linux, BSD, and OpenSolaris distributions
When to choose
- you need a visual family tree of Linux distributions
- you want an up-to-date, community-maintained distro lineage chart
- you need SVG/PNG timeline assets for documentation or teaching
When to avoid
- you need package or release metadata about distributions rather than lineage
- you want an interactive web app rather than static images
- you need timelines for non-Linux operating systems only
