Garuda Linux is a Linux distribution targeted towards gaming[1][2] based on Arch Linux. It is available in multiple desktop environments, but the KDE Plasma version is the main one.[3] The term Garuda, originating from Hinduism and Buddhism, is defined as a divine eagle-like sun bird and the king of birds.[4]

Garuda Linux, being based on Arch, features a rolling release update model using Pacman as its package manager.[1]
