Intel's Clear Linux OS Now Offers Linux Developer-Focused Tools

Clear Linux OS

Intel's Clear Linux OS project has released a new suite of tools aimed at Linux developers for its Linux-based operating system optimized for Intel architecture.

While Clear Linux OS is not as popular as Ubuntu, Debian or Arch Linux, it has always proven to be a viable and fast Linux-based operating system for desktops and servers, offering the best possible performance from Intel architectures.

Clear Linux OS follows the "Rolling-release" model in which the user only installs once and receives updates forever.

Intel has always wanted this distribution to be the preferred choice for developers, which is why it has now announced new images, an updated installer, a software store, and a forum dedicated to Linux developers of any size, gender, or age, offering curated content for the best possible development efficiency.

Here's what Clear Linux OS offers Linux developers

With this step, Clear Linux OS seeks to be the number one choice for Linux developers. Those interested can install the complete package with a simple command, which will provide all the relevant tools for C development (c-basic) and for the use of use-cases containers (containers-basic).

Clear OS Linux is now trying to help developers write code faster by adding the latest GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) 9 as the default compiler , and plans to update to GCC 10 as soon as it becomes available.

A debugging system for FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) was implemented to eliminate the need to install additional debug packages. On the other hand, developers now have the option to choose between GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, LXQt, i3 and Awesome as the graphical environment or window manager.

If you want to try all the tools of Clear Linux OS, you just need to download it from its official website.
