Carbs Linux is a source-based Linux(r) distribution that aims to be
simple, flexible and extensible while staying as pragmatic and practical
as possible. The system can consist of as much or as little as its user
can intend to.
Package Manager
===============
Carbs Linux uses its own package manager [Carbs Packaging Tools], a
POSIX shell package manager forked from KISS with the tool-based
approach of xbps.

Small base
==========
By default, Carbs Linux comes with busybox for coreutils, bearssl for
its crypto library, musl libc, and other basic utilities that are
required for building new software. The majority of the base packages
are statically linked.
Multiple Init Support
=====================
Carbs Linux has support for multiple init systems and service
supervisors. In the main repository are
- `sinit'
- `busybox-init' (SysVinit clone)
- `runit-init'
for init systems, and
- `sysmgr'
- `busybox-runit'
- `runit'
for service supervisors. The [carbs-init] package is the collection of
init scripts that ensure the interoperability of these init and
service systems, and make it easier for the user to switch to their
preferred combinations of system supervision.
Nothing holds you back, however, from ditching any of these and
packaging some other system supervision technique along with your own
init scripts.
