**RengeOS** is an Arch Linux-based distribution focused on minimalism, performance, stability, high compatibility (supporting both UEFI and Legacy BIOS modes), and high self-maintenance capabilities.

## So what does it have?
2121

22-
+ Although it might be **minimal**, the installation process will be quite easy thanks to ``ros-installer``, which allows direct interaction with the installation process via a TUI (dialog).
22+
+ **RengeOS** is an **Arch Linux-based distribution** that offers powerful performance geared towards individual devices and users, and also provides flexible, robust system maintenance capabilities such as ``Recovery Mode``, ``Snapshot Methods`` and support for ``bcachefs`` as the **default filesystem**, which makes **RengeOS** special.
2323

24-
+ **It is built on minimalist principles** and contains **no unnecessary components**.
25-
The integration of a **recovery mode** (optional) ensures easy system repair in case of errors.
26-
Furthermore, stability is enhanced by <a href="https://bcachefs.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bcachefs Filesystem</a>, which supports efficient snapshot creation and management,
27-
similar to **Btrfs** but with much greater efficiency.
24+
+ **RengeOS** kernels are built with ``O3 optimization``, the ``lz4 algorithm``, and performance patches from ``CachyOS``, ``TKG-Family``, and ``other sources`` **prioritizing strong overall performance** for **everyday** use and you can verify this yourself by try this:)
2825

29-
+ It provides an integrated solution to **factory reset** the system and **erase all data** without needing a bootable ISO file or USB drive.
30-
Simply boot into **Recovery Mode** using ``ros-reborn`` via a TUI (dialog) to restore the system to its **original state** as when it was first installed.
31-
32-
+ **The default Linux kernel** is based on the **XanMod Kernel** with several customizations such as a **BORE scheduler** (for the latest kernels except LTS),
33-
**O3 optimization** (both kernels), **glitched patches from the Frogging Family** (for the latest kernels except LTS)
34-
and **other patches**, providing powerful system performance :)
26+
+ **RengeOS** also offers a ``Recovery Mode`` **feature**, **which** is essentially a **second RengeOS** system located on a **separate partition** on your machine. **It** allows you to **boot into** and **log into the tty** then **repair** your main system **if** you encounter problems such as kernel, service, package conflicts, or a black screen due to missing drivers. **This** can be done by **mounting the system**, then ``arch-chroot`` into the drive (usually ``/``) and **repairing it** without needing a **USB drive** or **Live ISO** as is typically done directly on your machine (**Advanced Users**).
3527

36-
+ The compression standard for everything here is the **LZ4 algorithm**
37-
because it's probably the **fastest algorithm** currently applied by default to the **default built in kernel, zram, mkinitcpio,
38-
and many others**, delivering quite impressive results in my opinion.
39-
40-
+ By default, **future distros** will always be the base system and will always **support UEFI and Legacy BIOS modes**,
41-
as well as **bcachefs** in the future, because I want it to be compatible, stable, and lightweight for both older and newer machines up to this point,
42-
and also to save as many outdated laptops as possible, heheh
28+
+ **Furthermore**, it provides tools like ``ros-reborn`` and ``ros-reborn-system-ota`` along with a ``Recovery Mode`` that allows you to **reinstall the system to its original state (similar to a factory reset on Android)** and switch between **RengeOS versions** flexibly **without** needing a **USB drive** or **Live ISO** performing the process directly on your device.

## Open Source Commitment
33+
34+
+ **I, Phú — the creator of RengeOS** — am committed to keeping RengeOS fully open source. All core components, build scripts, and system tools will remain publicly available under the GNU GPLv3 license.
35+
36+
+ **RengeOS** will always be free to use, modify, and redistribute. Development will remain transparent, and community contributions are welcome.
37+
38+
+ **As long as** I maintain this project, **RengeOS** will receive regular updates and long-term support, following Arch Linux and its upstream development.
