Salix OS - A Powerful and Simple Slackware Distro - Invidious
> I've wanted to take a look at some Slackware based distros for a while now, and now that Summer has ended it's time to do just that, starting with Salix. Salix is an interesting distro that offers all the power and stability of Slackware, but its footprint is much smaller than a full Slackware install and, here's the thing, it adds dependency management into the mix. This is what sets Salix apart. Package management is as simple as it is on the likes of ubuntu, especially when using the gslapt gui. Add the ability to use flatpaks and slackbuilds into the mix and you soon start to see what a great little system this really is.
