FydeOS

What is FydeOS ?

FydeOS is based on the open source project The Chromium Projects, which we have modified and optimised to offer a more flexible user experience for whoever wishes to use FydeOS as part of their solution as well as the end users. FydeOS is a Cloud-firstoperating system.

Like Chromium OS, FydeOS was born out of the belief that all the applications and services we use today will increasingly move to the cloud.

Like Chromium OS, FydeOS was built on the belief that modern applications and services are increasingly shifting to the cloud. (Note: Chrome OS is the operating system powering Google Chromebooks and Chromium OS is the open-source projects behind).
