Basic AlmaLinux 8

Basic AlmaLinux 8, a community-led open-source Linux distribution, arose in response to CentOS Linux's altered focus and support schedule. Its primary objective is to deliver a dependable, no-cost, and open-source OS that aligns with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) compatibility.

Basic AlmaLinux 8 focuses on stability and dependability. It provides long-term maintenance through security patches and upgrades, delivering a stable operating system for both server and desktop applications.

Basic AlmaLinux 8 uses the yum package manager (now transitioning to dnf as the default in newer versions), allowing users to easily install, update, and manage software packages and dependencies. Additionally, While Basic AlmaLinux 8 is primarily designed for server use, it supports various desktop environments like GNOME, KDE Plasma, XFCE, and others. Users have the flexibility to choose and customize their preferred graphical interface.

The project offers comprehensive documentation, guides, and resources to assist users in installing, configuring, and maintaining AlmaLinux systems. Moreover, Basic AlmaLinux 8 benefits from an active and growing community of users and contributors. This community of support helps users troubleshoot issues, share knowledge, and collaborate on improvements.

Another noteworthy feature is that Basic AlmaLinux 8 is built as a binary-compatible alternative to RHEL 8. This means it can run software and applications designed for RHEL without requiring modifications, providing a seamless transition for users from CentOS or RHEL to AlmaLinux.
