VasakOS Alpha 4

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Alpha 4 is here, and it is the biggest update we have published so far. It is not a list of touch-ups: a good part of the desktop stopped depending on borrowed pieces from other environments and got its own —keyring, permissions, notifications, login screen and lock screen— all drawn with the same colors, the same corner radius and the same typeface you chose.

Vendefoul Linux Vasak Version

Sun, 11 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The people behind Vendefoul Linux decided to make a version of their distribution with our desktop. It is in an experimental state for now, because at the moment vasak-desktop does not have broad compatibility with other non-systemd inits; we will work together anyway to make the desktop integration easier.

Vote for the next default icon pack

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The other day we mentioned “We are looking for a default icon pack” and that we were reviewing all the icon packs that were sent to us. Today we want to invite you to take part in the vote for the icon pack we consider the most suitable for the VasakOS desktop.

We are looking for a default icon pack

Wed, 20 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

We are currently at an early development stage and the dream of having our own icons is still far away, not only because of how much work we still have to do with the desktop itself, but also because we lack a designer who can help us create a default icon pack.

VasakOS first public demo

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Today we decided to release a sort of visual DEMO of what VasakOS is. Even though it is not available to the general public, it is a sort of video that shows what the VasakOS environment looks like and how it behaves. It was recorded on a real computer and not in a virtual machine, so the real performance of the operating system can be seen. It was recorded on a computer with a Ryzen 5 processor and 16GB of RAM.
