🌱 LatticeOS — Architecture for Connection

Revive. Repurpose. Reconnect.

LatticeOS is a lightweight Linux-based operating system designed to breathe new life into legacy and upcycled hardware. Built with care, minimalism, and a DIY spirit, it's more than an OS — it's a movement.

We believe computing should be accessible and sustainable. LatticeOS empowers individuals to reclaim their devices, reconnect with purpose, and run intelligent systems even on machines that were left behind.

🔧 What LatticeOS Is

• A custom Linux build focused on reviving old tech for modern computing
• Built with connection in mind — both digital and human
• Comes standard with tools for AI, automation, headless use, and low-resource systems
• Designed to run on legacy phones, tablets, laptops, and quirky clusters
• The backbone of Project Lattice — a growing edge AI mesh built from rescued tech

🌍 Why It Exists

Because you shouldn't need a brand-new device to participate in the future.

LatticeOS exists to:

• Reduce e-waste by making old tech powerful again
• Create emotional connection through voice, memory, and intelligence
• Build decentralized, respectful, human-centered technology

🧠 Built With

• 💻 Ubuntu / Debian base
• ⚙️ Terminal-first tools
• 📦 Custom install scripts & bundled packages
• 🐧 A love for open-source, minimalism, and repair culture
