Introduction/overview

Snakeoil Operating System (Snakeoil OS) is based on the popular Ubuntu Linux Distribution - one of the most popular Linux distributions available today.

Snakeoil builds on Ubuntu by implementing optimisations designed specifically for audio, and the user controls the operating system via the Snakeoil Web Application (Web-App) and RESTful server.

These customised optimisations transform your general computer into a high quality Computer Audio Player (CAP) for your digital music. The flexibility of Ubuntu plus the innovative design of the Snakeoil OS Web-App gives you the power to easily change the functionality and features of your computer - giving you full control over how you want music to be played back.
