From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rebecca Black OS.
It is the only Linux distro to date built around Weston, using Wayland's full capability:

It doesn't include any Rebecca Black theming or is related to her in any way.
It's just called that cause the dev is a fan of hers.

From the name, I expected a Hannah Montana Linux type distro.

I’m pretty sure that screenshot is Wayfire, not Weston.
