Bodhi Linux has a very friendly and active community, check it out for yourself on our forums or in live chat (Discord).

Bodhi Linux is an open-source distro with a rather small team of active Team Members; we are always looking for help. In particular, we are looking for C, Bash, and Python programmers, translators, graphic artists, theme developers, and more. If you have skills to put to use, or a willingness to learn, contact us via Discord or our forums. Not all users can nor want to contribute to the code or documentation; but even a small financial donation helps tremendously.

Ready to give it a try? Head over to our Downloads page.

We hope you’ll enjoy Bodhi Linux as much as we do!
