EUZOSEUZOS Desktop
FAQ › EUZOS Desktop · Nederlands
What is it?
EUZOS Desktop is the edition of EUZOS for users' PCs, laptops and tablets: a graphical desktop with a login screen (QR code with the EUZOS phone app, password, Microsoft/Entra, offline), a profile per user, its own browser engine plus Chromium, mail, an explorer and a console. It is built from the same kernel as EUZOS Server, with the desktop-only modules behind #[cfg(feature = "desktop")] (see Editions).
