Setbian — Vision & Roadmap

# Define: Vision

>> Setbian began as a simple Debian setup tool, but the mission has grown. It's about how people connect with software.

>> I am not trying to simplify Linux to the point of weakness. My goal is to make it approachable, collaborative, and emotionally meaningful — especially for fellow developers and learners.

The project executes on two main threads.

01. Setbian Installer

A UX-focused Debian setup experience that installs software with clicks, helps beginners feel confident, yet preserves Linux openness.

✓ Beginner Confidence

✓ GUI Installation

cd ./installer_repo

02. App Portal

TYPE: COMMUNITY_HUB

A community-driven app discovery space where developers submit code via PRs and users download via intuitive interfaces or QR codes.

✓ PR-based Submissions

✓ QR Code Sharing

✓ Learn & Install

cat ./app_code_files
