These "window manager" distros lead in performance - lots of speed per unit of resources on your machine. Catbird Linux is my favorite live environment, with visual appeal and a rippingly responsive workflow.

Catbird Linux Helps You Produce

Whether you're writing code, blogging, creating videos, or photos for your online shops, Catbird Linux has the tools you need.

Catbird Linux is a live environment you boot from a flash drive, which runs on new and old PCs. It is Debian Sid at its best, with a snappy tiling window manager (DWM) and tuned for high performance. It is full of media editing and creation tools.

Catbird Linux also has Python, Lua, Go, and other software languages you would want for data analysis tools. Scrape the web, build databases, take notes, and master your world.
