Immutable Desktop, Simplified

Kalpa provides a modern immutable desktop experience built on openSUSE MicroOS, designed for users who want a reliable, low-maintenance system with automatic transactional updates.

Built on MicroOS

Kalpa is powered by openSUSE MicroOS, using a read-only root filesystem and transactional updates, ensuring system stability and integrity even after major updates.

KDE Plasma Experience

Kalpa offers a streamlined KDE desktop tailored for an atomic setup — minimal, clean, and optimized for users who want a modern and consistent interface.

Reboot-to-Update Simplicity

Updates are applied automatically in the background and activated upon reboot, reducing downtime and eliminating update interruptions.

Enhanced Security by Design

The immutable base system minimizes the attack surface and prevents accidental system damage, making Kalpa a secure choice for everyday computing.

Transactional System Integrity

Every system change is transactional — meaning you can roll back easily if something goes wrong, ensuring consistency across updates and configurations.

Verifique a Sua Transferência Antes de Usar

Muitas aplicações podem verificar o CHECKSUM da transferência. Verificar a sua transferência pode ser importante, pois verifica que realmente tem a Imagem ISO que pretendia transferir e não uma versão corrompida.

For each ISO, we offer a checksum file with the corresponding SHA256 sum, and a signature file with a cryptographic signature.

To ensure integrity of the downloaded file you can use sha256sum to verify the checksum, and gpgv to verify the cryptographic signature.
