***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).*
