Linux for Your Mac

Gravity Linux is a Fedora remix that brings a fast, modern Linux desktop to Apple Silicon — built in the open, by people like you.

Latest Release 44

Built entirely by clean-room reverse engineering.

Install Gravity Linux

One command from macOS. The installer resizes your disk, fetches the release, and walks you through the rest.

Early alpha M4 Mac mini
curl -fsSL https://install.gravitylinux.org | sh

This release is intended for developers. It is not ready to be a daily driver — there may be no upgrade path to beta, power management is incomplete, and suspend does not work yet.

Device support

Every supported device, even at alpha, has all features supported including GPU acceleration.

What you get

A real desktop

KDE Plasma on Wayland, on top of a Fedora base you already know.

Native GPU acceleration

A working display controller and GPU driver, so the desktop, your browser, and your games run on the hardware.

Upstream first

Our long-term goal is to land everything upstream. That is the only practical way to keep a project like this sustainable.

Built responsibly

Every line is written by clean-room reverse engineering. We never look at Apple source code or disassembly, and we publish enough of our process for anyone to check that for themselves.

Built by people just like you

Gravity Linux is built by people who are passionate about open source and good engineering. Whether you write drivers, file bug reports, or just run it on your hardware and tell us what broke — there is room for you.
