More than just software.

Setbian started as a simple Debian post-installation assistant but evolved into something larger. My aim is to reduce unnecessary friction, especially for beginners, while respecting the flexibility that Linux offers.

I believe software shouldn’t just exist as tools — it should support the people who build, learn, and work with it. Setbian focuses on clarity, respect for licensing, transparency, and a genuine emotional connection with open-source culture.

Human-Centered

Built for people, not just machines.

Collaborative

Driven by community contribution.

Transparent

Open source and clear licensing.

Inclusive

For beginners and experts alike.
