CBPP (CrunchBang Plus Plus) Linux distribution based on Debian and Openbox window manager, for fast responsive desktop experience on older hardware

What is CrunchBang Plus Plus?

CrunchBang Plus Plus (CBPP) is a Linux distribution based on Debian and using the lightweight Openbox window manager. It is a continuation of the original CrunchBang Linux, which was discontinued in 2013.

CBPP aims to provide many of the same benefits as the original CrunchBang - a fast, responsive desktop experience that can run well on older or low-powered hardware. To achieve this, it uses relatively lightweight components like the Openbox window manager and custom Openbox themes and configurations.

Some key features and goals of CrunchBang Plus Plus include:

• Low system resource usage for good performance on older computers
• Lightweight Openbox window manager and desktop interface
• Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit systems
• Active community providing support and additional themes/configuration
• Rolling release model with frequent software updates from Debian
• Customized look and feel through Openbox theming

CBPP can be a good choice for breathing new life into older computers or for those seeking a lightweight but fully functional Linux distribution. Its custom Openbox interface and range of configuration options allow heavy customization as well.
