SharkLinux is a 64 bit Linux Desktop that specializes in virtualization. The OS is based on Ubuntu 20.04 and features a custom MATE/XFCE desktop capable of running on a cloud server with little impact on performance. The OS runs KVM as the primary hypervisor and provides a wide range of tools to build and run VM's and containers.
SharkLinux has several distinct qualities from other Linux systems such as; automatic system upgrades, sudo users can run shell commands without a password. Build scripts are one-click and configured to run without conflicting with other included software.

SharkLinux is built exclusively in a cloud environment to ensure compatibility
