I’m a developer dedicated to the Python ecosystem, Linux desktop customization, and the Greek open-source community. My current focus is building AliveOS — a minimalist, Arch-based, developer-optimized Linux distribution.
- 🐧 Currently Building: AliveOS — A clean, bloat-free Linux distro powered by Arch & Garuda with a custom Cinnamon desktop.
- 🌐 AliveOS Website: aliveos.org — Landing page and project hub.
- 📁 Custom Apps: Purpose-built applications for the AliveOS desktop experience — file manager, media player, calculator, and more.
- 🔌 Legacy Work: Deep roots in Kodi add-on development (AliveGR) and ResolveURL.
- 🌐 Localization: Translator for Kodi, ResolveURL, and the YouTube Addon.
