Running GNOME OS on mobile phones


GNOME OS is GNOME's development, testing and QA operating system. It builds the in-development versions of the GNOME desktop and core applications. It is also a modern image-based Linux system.

In this talk, I'm going to present recent efforts to run GNOME OS on phones. Right now, the FairPhone 5 and the OnePlus 6 are supported, but ideally we could support any phone that is supported by the mainline Linux kernel.

I will briefly present the different tools and projects that make this possible, and what we're hoping to achieve from this initiative: better testing for the GNOME applications, and more ways to do FOSS on Mobile.
