What is Twister OS?

The main goal of Twister OS is to provide a true desktop computing experience for single board computers (SBCs), right out-of-the-box. Twister OS includes themes, applications, tools, and optimizations to allow you to get the most out of your SBC.

Some of Twister OS’s key features are:

  • 15 different user interface themes, both modern and nostalgic. Whether you’re a Linux, Windows, or Mac user, you’ll feel “right at home” on Twister OS. Changing the entire look and feel of your OS is as easy as clicking a button in the included “ThemeTwister” app.
  • Box86 and Box64, built-in emulators which allow for the use of x86 and x64 (traditional PC) applications and games on ARM CPU-based SBCs, like the Raspberry Pi.
  • Wine, a Linux application that, when used in conjunction with Box64, allows for running x86/x64 Windows software on your SBC.
  • Chromium Media Edition, for streaming DRM-protected (Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, etc.) video and audio content on your SBC.
  • Pi-Apps and PiKISS, two software stores which allow you to easily install a number of apps specifically designed or modified to run on the Raspberry Pi.
  • Multimedia apps for audio and video playback and streaming.
  • And much more. Take Twister OS for a spin, and see what all the excitement is about for yourself!
