*In this wiki, you will find guides about how to install, use and hack Phyllome OS, as well as more general information about open-source virtualization and the project behind this specialized OS.*
***What is Phyllome OS?** [Phyllome OS](https://phyllo.me/) is an operating system that makes it easier to run various guest systems locally using [off-the-shelf hardware](https://wiki.phyllo.me/deploy/prepare). If you want to learn more about it, its goal and the context around it, have a look at the [white-paper](https://files.phyllo.me/s/oYwfxYpZcbppwr6).*

*This section is meant to help users prepare their computers to host Phyllome OS, pick the version that will suit their needs, understand Phyllome OS' limitations, and install it.*
*Although Phyllome OS thrives to pick good defaults that will work for many guest operating systems, further optimizations may be needed depending on the system you wish to use.*
*This section is meant to introduce the execution of particular taks on Phyllome OS. Some of these tasks will be rendered obsolete with newer Phyllome OS versions.*
*In this section, the focus is on KVM virtualization and its associated tools, including QEMU, the Linux kernel, `libvirt`, etc., mostly in the context of Phyllome OS.*
