Enabling Linux
on every device.
Lomiri is one open operating environment that adapts to phones, tablets and desktops. OS-SCi teaches it, builds on it, and rewards developers who help it grow.
CORE VALUES
Technology should serve its users, not control them.
Lomiri exists for people who value control, flexibility and transparency. That is exactly what OS-SCi stands for with Freedom First.
Freedom and openness
Technology should serve its users, not control them.
Convergence
One operating environment across all devices.
Community
Developed and shaped by a global community.
Now part of DebianWHY OS-SCI BACKS LOMIRI
A future-proof, open alternative.
Lomiri can compete with Android, Apple and Microsoft by offering a unified, open alternative that puts users first. We support it not just in spirit, but in action.
True convergence
One interface that adapts across phones, tablets and desktops, with no separate OS needed.
Lightweight and fast
A Qt-based, GPU-optimised architecture with lower overhead than legacy X11 systems.
Wayland and Mir native
Built for modern display servers, with app sandboxing against legacy X11 vulnerabilities.
Modern Qt foundation
A rich user experience with support for both Wayland and X11 apps.
WHAT IS LOMIRI?
One shell. Every form factor.
Originally the interface layer behind Ubuntu Touch, Lomiri has grown into an independent open source project that powers phones, tablets, desktops and other form factors from a single codebase.
