Ubuntu 24.04 Noble · GNOME · v1.0 "Wave"
Simple. Friendly. Fresh.
What makes it special
RippleOS takes everything you love about Ubuntu and wraps it in a clean, opinionated experience that just works — right from the live USB.
Pure Ubuntu Base
100% Ubuntu Noble (24.04) under the hood. No Debian repos, no hybrid mirrors. Full compatibility with all Ubuntu software, PPAs and Snap packages.
GNOME, Polished
GNOME Shell with Yaru Dark theme, Ubuntu fonts, and hand-tuned defaults. Pinned apps, dark mode, and a custom animated wallpaper from the very first boot.
Ready Out of the Box
Firefox, Discord, Flatpak + Flathub, GNOME Software, PulseAudio, and a full codec stack. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Security First
UFW firewall on by default with sensible rules. Unattended security upgrades keep you patched automatically. No fuss, maximum protection.
Live + Installer
Boot and try without touching your disk, or click "Install RippleOS" to run the Calamares graphical installer. Set up in minutes.
Open Source & Free
No license keys, no telemetry, no subscriptions. RippleOS is completely free — built on open-source foundations, forever.
