## What it is
This repository is not software; it is Valve's community issue tracker for SteamOS, used for bug reports, support requests, and improvement suggestions. It links to official installation, recovery, and troubleshooting documentation and directs users to other Valve trackers for game- or client-specific issues.

## Use cases
- report a SteamOS bug to Valve
- find SteamOS installation and repair instructions
- troubleshoot a Steam Deck that won't boot
- request a SteamOS feature or improvement
- check if a SteamOS issue is already known
- find the right Valve tracker for a Steam client or game bug

## When to choose
- you need to file or search SteamOS bug reports and feature requests
- you want official links to SteamOS recovery and repair docs

## When to avoid
- you are looking for SteamOS source code or downloadable images - this repo contains none
- your issue is with the Steam client or a specific game - use the corresponding Valve tracker instead
