# The Phyllome OS wiki
*Phyllome[^1] OS is an operating system that makes it easier to run [various operating systems](#go-further) locally using [off-the-shelf hardware](/deploy/prepare) and [virtualization](/virt/lexicon#virtualization) technologies.*
In this wiki, you will find guides about [how to install](#install) and [use](#get-started) Phyllome OS, as well as information on the [underlying technologies](#references), Phyllome OS [itself](#about-phyllome-os) and the surrounding [project](#about-the-project).
> Phyllome OS is in its alpha stage of development. Expect bugs and disappointment
