Debian Linux / Debian GNU/Linux
Debian Linux is a free and open source operating system for your computer. An operating system is a set of basic and auxiliary software that runs your computer. Debian is more than a bare-bones operating system. Debian comes with over 29,000 packages of compiled software that are packaged in a convenient format that is easy to install on your system. A fundamental tenet of the project is that all products produced must be free. Free software is software that can be used, studied, and modified for any purpose without restriction. It is also free to copy and redistribute (either unchanged or with modifications) without restriction or with very few restrictions (only to ensure that subsequent recipients of the software also benefit from these freedoms, or to allow users to modify their hardware, where the hardware is intended for use by consumers). It should be noted that Debian is a major distribution and many other Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, are derived from it.

The Debian Project is an association of individuals who have made a common cause to create a free operating system. This operating system that we have created is called Debian.
An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. At the core of an operating system is the kernel. The kernel is the most fundamental program on the computer and does all the basic housekeeping and lets you start other programs.
