brintOS docs

Everything you need to build, share, and launch full Linux machines that boot inside a browser tab. These pages are a work in progress — content is placeholder for now and will be filled in as features stabilize.

What is brintOS?

brintOS runs real Linux machines inside the browser. Every machine is a versioned root filesystem you can build, fork, and launch — like a repository, but it boots. This documentation walks through the concepts, the day-to-day workflow, and the surfaces you can automate against.

Placeholder content. This site is structured like a documentation portal so we can drop real guides into the sections on the left without reworking the layout.

Where to start

Quickstart — boot your first machine in a couple of minutes.
Core concepts — machines, snapshots, and the filesystem model.
Command line — drive brintOS from your terminal.
Storage & filesystems — how machine data is stored, and how to mount it locally with brintos-fs.

Conventions used in these docs

Commands you run in a shell are shown in monospace blocks. Inline names like brintos refer to commands, files, or identifiers. Notes call out things worth remembering:

# Placeholder example
brintos --help
