Linux is one of the core software that is the most basic part of operating systems. It is a free software project offered under the GNU General Public License version 2 and developed under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation. The name Linux was given by Linus Torvalds, its first developer, in 1991.

Linux was started to be written from scratch in 1991 by Linus Torvalds, a Finnish university student, in accordance with the architecture of UNIX, one of the older operating systems, and POSIX standards. Although it was inspired by Unix architecture in its development, there is no code taken from Unix in Linux. This software developed is just a core software without user tools.

Long before Linux, in 1984, Richard Stallman left his job at MIT, who wanted to develop a new operating system compatible with UNIX architecture as a free software project. The operating system development project called the GNU Draft By 1991, the user tools were ready but the core software was incomplete.

In 1992, Linus Torvalds decided to release this core software as free software with the GNU General Public License in order to get the support of more developers and contributors. Thus, these two projects (the Linux kernel and the GNU Draft) completed each other's shortcomings and became available as a complete operating system. This operating system was announced in the GNU bulletin in 1994 as "Free UNIX-Like".

Linus Torvalds described the story of developing Linux in Just For Fun.

Linus Torvalds was bitten by a penguin during his visit to the Australian National Zoo, Canberra, in 1996. Here Linus mentioned that the Linux mascot will be some kind of little penguin. Larry Ewing participated in the competition started with the penguin drawing that is still used today and his drawing was selected. The name suggestion for this symbol came from James Hughes, and the abbreviation "Tux", which Hughes suggested based on the letters in "Torvald's Unix" (Torvalds' Unix), was accepted. One of the jokes of this name is that penguins' feather colors are similar to tuxedo clothes, the word for tuxedo in English is "tuxedo".

Linux distribution (or GNU / Linux distribution); The Linux kernel is a complete operating system created by the combination of GNU tools, a display server and a desktop environment, with configuration tools to manage this union sustainably.

In 1993, Patrick Volkerding launched a GNU / Linux project where he combined various networking tools, graphical interface and other tools. The project he calls Slackware is the first GNU / Linux distribution. [9] In the same year, the Debian project was announced by Ian Murdock for similar purposes. [10] The Debian distribution is still the oldest widely used distribution. Detailed information on this subject can be found in the Linux distributions article.

In the early years of its development, GNU / Linux was being reproduced on floppy disks and distributed hand in hand at various conferences and university circles. Although this method, which leads to the definition of distribution, is done in the form of downloading via the internet today, this term is still used.

The Internet has opened up an area that provides everyone with the need for free software and the environment to develop software together universally. The GNU / Linux project has taken advantage of this opportunity very well and has developed from the 90's until today with the contributions of experts around the world.
