Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Apollo for?#

Apollo is designed to be a general purpose operating system for everyone, and is especially suited for those wanting a general day to day operating system and developers running containerised workloads. Gaming is also fully possible on Apollo, even though it’s not the primary focus.

How do I install software?#

We use Flatpak for GUI applications, homebrew for CLI applications, and Distrobox for distro packages where they’re needed. See Installing Software for more information.
