Linux ili GNU/Linux je operativni sistem za računare baziran na Linux kernelu.^[1] Jedan je od najpoznatijih primjera slobodnog softvera i razvoja putem otvorenog koda. Za razliku od drugih operativnih sistema (kao na primjer Windows-a i Mac OS-a) njegov kod je dostupan javnosti i svako ima pravo da ga slobodno koristi, mijenja i redistribuira.

The shared commonality of the kernel is what defines a system's membership in the Linux family; the differing OSS applications that can interact with the common kernel are what differentiate Linux distributions.
