====== mbuntu ======
Status Update 15/01:
Thanks to a kind donation from stryd's neighbour, we now have a box dedicated to mbuntu development. Now working out the finer points of the interaction between apps and also some config tricks. mbuntu's beginnings are stryd_one's full-time operating system on three machines, so it could be said that it's coming along OK, or you wouldn't be reading this ;)
Status Update 07/09:
Script is coming along slowly.
Still screening apps and learning the ins and outs of packaging.
**If you would like to install a few things to figure out what's the "best" tool for a certain job, shout out!\\
If you know about .deb packaging, we'd love any advice you can offer :)**
Turn this page into a table with: \\
App name| Description| Home page| Latest Version| Repo Location (Existing //OR// Destination)|Existing Repo Version //OR// Packaging Priority|
Add footnotes for links like howto's etc No longer req'd, additional repos all in the script already with comments.
\\
There's a lot of stuff listed here - don't worry, we're anti-bloat. Only the apps that are worthy will make the cut. And you don't have to install them all!
\\
\\
:!: **means we're pretty sure about this one** Add one of these if you see something you really want!\\
FIXME **means please share any info you have and can find**\\
We can tidy the page up as this gets more structured.
====== Aims ======
An out-of-the-box platform for:
- general use / researching (web, email, viewers)
- modifying, building, and uploading midibox apps
- developing PCBs/schematics/panels
- making music
- dev for other similar projects (arduino, synth DIY, etc)
