The Education edition is, as its name suggests, designed for learning and ships with all the popular open source educational apps and utilities.īesides these three there is a fourth version called the Ultimate edition, which is currently available for $39. If you have an older computer, you can use the Lite edition that is designed for underpowered machines. Zorin is based on Ubuntu and the Core edition is the standard version that includes all the apps you’ll need in a regular desktop. Three of these, namely Core, Lite, and Education, are offered as free downloads. Zorin is available in multiple different editions. It does so thanks to its custom Zorin Appearance app that tweaks Zorin’s Gnome desktop environment to make it resemble Windows in both form and function. The distro pitches itself to first-time Linux users that are used to the ways of popular proprietary operating systems, namely Windows and macOS. Its developers wanted to make Linux accessible to regular users and they did this by introducing familiarity in the user interface. The Zorin OS project began in 2008 with the sole intention of making Linux user-friendly.
