Server and IoT — minimal images, with armbian-config for networking, storage and services

Desktop — thirteen desktop environments, hardware acceleration where the SoC has it

Yours to change — one script builds image, kernel and bootloader. Adding a board is a pull request, not a fork

Tested on real hardware — a rack of boards flashes, boots and measures every build

  • cve Public

    Automatic backport service for Linux kernel security fixes in Armbian. It gathers CVE records, finds the fixes that the stable branches 6.1, 6.12, 6.18 and 7.3 do not have yet, and verifies that each patch applies and builds. Claude Code backports the fixes that do not apply cleanly, and a human reviews each backport.

  • shallow Public

    Daily shallow Git bundles of the Linux kernel and a combined U-Boot tree for Armbian builds. It updates the kernel.org bundles from live Git sources, makes one compact bundle per kernel version, and publishes them as OCI artifacts on ghcr.io. CI and user builds download these instead of cloning multi-gigabyte repositories.
