Linux Disto - Part 1
—————————
INTRODUCTION
We understand that you are observing various Linux OS’s and wondering what could make them differ from one other also how could they be so many? Because Linux distributions are growing fast and still they increasing in number, here is why . . .

: PMS(Package Management System)
Linux Distributions are organized into sections by the major distribution they are based on, or the PMS they are based on around.

• There are 7 PMS based sections which we can categorize every Linux Distros. Those are:

1. RPM-based
2. Debian-based
3. Pacman-based
4. Gentoo-based
5. Slaxkwave-based
6. Source-based
7. Independent

Now .... here comes the HOT point

What is a Linux Distro?
Windows and Mac OS X are built in-house by the companies that sell them. Linux is different in this case. Being an open-source operating system, it opens up room for anyone with a desire to create their own OS to actually do so without a lot of programming knowledge.

Whenever someone creates their own version of Linux with the use of an existing Linux distro as their base (or create one without a base by using the Linux kernel code), the complete package is called a Linux distribution.

Linux Disto - Part 2
—————————
Top 5 Linux
for Programming & Development
——————
1. Arch
Since it’s a minimalist distro, Arch comes with the bare essentials - the Linux kernel and a package manager, Pacman. Arch doesn’t come with a GUI initially, so a developer looking for a minimalist programming environment would feel right at home using it.
Considering its complex installation, Arch is recommended for advanced Linux users. It’s the perfect Linux distro for programmers, but only if you’re willing to slog through the ultimately rewarding but admittedly lengthy roll-your-own distro process. It’s a great choice for programmers who want to customize their Linux installation from the start.

2. Fedora
Community-built Linux distro with no other OS base, designed to be cutting-edge in terms of software technology. Linux creator Linus Torvalds opts for Fedora over other major distros like Ubuntu or Debian

3. Ubuntu
One of the most popular Debian-based, all-time-favorite Linux distro, extremely easy to use for first-time users. One of the best Linux distros in 2020 for beginners.

4. CentOS
It boasts an impressive repository of software, as well as Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL) for dynamic languages and open-source databases. It offers the ideal environment for programmers focused on enterprise development and programming in general.

5. Kali
Debian-based, best cybersecurity and pentester focused Linux distro

What we Recommend:
If you are Newbie Programmer and also new to Linux systems mean you don’t fully master terminal commands you better use Ubuntu otherwise we recommend Fedora and Arch Linux based systems like Manjaro with even more interactive interface because . . .

Manjaro is Arch-based distro and Ubuntu is Debian-based distro. Arch's package management system is better than Debian (in speed we mean). Pre-installation, installation and post-installation steps are faster for Arch. Because apt package management of Debian is spending time for some unnecessary things.

Linux Disto - Part 3

Top 5 Linux
for Networking & Security
——————
You may heard of Mr. Robot a series show on American network cable TV, the best hacking show yet, otherwise you’re not geek at all and you’re on the wrong channel ! We’re kidding maybe you didn’t pay attention as we did. Let’s pitch you a little and get back to our main topic.

“We’re in a culture where you have access to everybody. You can text your grandmother. You can look up your high school friends on Facebook. You literally have no excuse to not be able to connect to people but yes, you can still feel loneliness.” In fact, our all-pervasive access to social media and mobile communication can actually exacerbate that loneliness, making people feel more isolated despite being more connected than ever. Well Mr. Robot is about that, what makes the show work is how true it is to its subject matter, from the alienation at the heart of an always-connected life to the technologies the characters use to pull off the story lines. In did you will witness much hacking and cracking in the way, it’s cool to add to the watchlist tho.

1. Kali
Its created by Offensive Security, is primarily preferred by ethical hackers to perform penetration tests on vulnerable networks and computers. It comes loaded with tons of pre-installed tools. However, let us make it clear that it’s not designed for a beginner who doesn’t know his/her way around in the world of Linux.

2. BackBox
BackBox has its own software repository providing latest stable versions of various system & network analysis toolkits and the best known ethical hacking tools. It is designed with minimalism in mind and uses XFCE desktop environment. It delivers a fast, effective, customizable and complete experience.

3. Parrot
Parrot Security OS is based on Debian and uses MATE as its desktop environment. Almost every recognized tool for penetration testing is available here, along with some exclusive custom tools from Frozenbox Network. The target users are the ones who needs cloud friendly environment with online anonymity and encrypted system.

4. BlackArch
It has its own repository containing thousands of tools organized in various groups. And the list is growing over time.

5. Bugtraq
Bugtraq is an Ubuntu based OS and it packs a huge arsenal of penetration testing tools-mobile forensics, malware testing laboratories along with tools specifically designed by the Bugtraq-Community.

What we Recommend:
If your workstation or server hardware specification is less, then Parrot Security OS is best for you because it’s lightweight and requires very minimum specification otherwise Kali is best handpicked by us . . .

Kali Linux is used in multiple episodes of Mr. Robot. It’s free, open source, and pre-installed with hundreds of pen testing programs, so it’s perfect for cracking Wi-Fi passwords, bypassing anti-virus software, and testing security vulnerabilities on your network. It has got a distribution system with everything you need.

Linux Disto - Part 4
—————————
Top 5 Linux
for Newbies / User Friendly
——————
Not knowing where to start can be a downer. Especially for someone who does not have the concept of something else running on their PC in place of Windows.

Most of you already know software programming right? What else still you reading this otherwise, so that means you know a little or more about concepts of parallel processing and open source, also this means you know that Linux is better in the topics mentioned.

If you are just starting and hands on to this environment for the first time, don’t worry we can suggest a list of best Linux OS that are designed to be familiar in the situation you’re in.

Here are the top 5 best Linux OS’s that can help you get started and guide you become the best programmer.

1. Ubuntu
Ubuntu has been tagged as Linux for human beings. Now, this is because Ubuntu has put in a lot of effort on universal usability. Ubuntu does not require you to be technically sound for you to use it. It breaks the notion of Linux=Command line hassle. This is one of the major plus points that rocketed Ubuntu to where it is today.

2. Elementary
Since we have taken a look at Linux distros for Windows users, let’s swing by something for MacOS users too. Elementary OS is another Ubuntu-based operating system which means the operating system itself is unquestionably stable. It’s very quickly rose to fame and now is always included in the list of top distros, all thanks to its aesthetic essence. Inspired by MacOS looks, Elementary OS is one of the most beautiful Linux distros.

3. Linux Mint Cinnamon
New Linux users who are still in the process of familiarizing themselves with Linux software will find Cinnamon very useful. All the software are very accessibly grouped under categories. Although this is nothing of a mind-blowing feature, to new users who do not know the names of Linux software, this is a huge bonus. Its also fast. Runs fine on older computers.

4. Linux Mint Mate
It is a great Linux distro if you are looking for something to run your older computers. Mint Mate can run smoothly on computers with less muscle power. The desktop environment does not come with bells and jingles. But in no way is it functionally inferior to any other desktop environments. The OS is non-intrusive and allows you to have a productive computing experience without getting in your way.

5. Zorin OS
Zorin OS is an Ubuntu-based, highly polished Linux distribution, entirely made for Windows refugees. Although pretty much every Linux distro is usable by everybody, some people might tend to be reluctant when the desktop looks too alien. Zorin OS dodges past this obstacle because of its similarities with Windows appearance wise.

What we Recommend:
It’s simple! if you are familiar to MacOS before we recommend you to use Elementary OS but if you’re Windows user you’re better use Ubuntu because it’s the most sustainable and more user friendly OS built yet! It’s the perfect path to begin your Linux Journey.

Until we meet again,
have a great journey!
