Chimera Linux is an independent[2] Linux distribution that aims to be practical while requiring the least amount of complexity or configuration to do so.[3] It uses userland tools from FreeBSD, the musl C library, the LLVM toolchain as the foundation of the system, providing an alternative to GNU-based systems, but without explicitly excluding GNU or GPL software. It also aims to re-think various aspects of common Linux distributions, as well as provide stronger security hardening than usual.[4][5][6][7]
