From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you now find out about iventoy 🙊
Never need a USB Stick anymore 😁
Worth pointing out that while ventoy is open source, iventoy is not. Might be important to some people.
Code is on Github You can download the source there
They're using GPL in that repo? Is that only partially?
Honestly I don´t know, I only found it in Github. If this is the complete source or only a part of it 🤷
