About the Developer...

Date: 11.01.2k5

SLYNUX, the user friendly GNU/Linux distribution developed from knoppix by SarathLakshman, Studying in 10th Standard and a 15 year old student. Till last year I was working under windows platform to develop different application software. Last year, my first product was launched. It was a teaching aid - Periodic Table Software. It was demanded by IT@School Project under the Department of General Education Kerala to include in the resource CD to distribute to 2500 High schools in Kerala. About 10 months ago, I first used Redhat 9 Linux and found that it was not user friendly. Later I understood best features of Linux that make the operating system powerfull. Linux Operating system was considered as a developer's operating system in the past days. It was because of the difficulties in using Linux that people practiced Windows OS. This forced me to think about developing a user friendly Linux called 'SLYNUX'.

My earlier acheivements..

I was interested in Science & Technology from the age of six. At that time I opened several electronic gadges and made experiments in electronics. Later I read books about hobby electronics and started to assemble electronic projects at the age of ten. With my own projects, I have participated in many Science Exhibitions. When I was studying in 7th Standard in Jawaharlal Nehru Govt Higher Secondary School, Mahe, I was interested in computer technology. When I reached in 8th Standard, my father bought me a Computer. This kindled my interest in developing software. I never stepped into a computer institute for learning computer. I followed my own way of learning - learning by doing.
