Oasis is a small, fully statically-linked Linux system built around musl, with reproducible builds driven by Lua-generated samurai manifests. It has no package manager; instead users configure package specifications and the build system produces a filesystem tree merged into /.

Use cases

  • build a minimal statically-linked linux system
  • reproducible os builds from source
  • bootstrap a linux distro from macOS or BSD
  • run a system with no dynamic linking dependencies
  • use bearssl as the system-wide tls library
  • cross-compile a small linux base system

When to choose

  • you want a tiny, self-contained, statically-linked linux base
  • you value reproducible builds and minimal bootstrap dependencies
  • you prefer configuring package specs over using a package manager

When to avoid

  • you need a large package repository or glibc compatibility
  • you want a conventional dynamic-linking desktop distro
  • you are not comfortable building your system from source
