>• About
>
>  GNU Guix is a transactional package manager and an advanced
>  distribution of the GNU system that respects user freedom.  Guix can
>  be used on top of any system running the Hurd or the Linux kernel, or
>  it can be used as a standalone operating system distribution for i686,
>  x86_64, ARMv7, and AArch64 machines.
>
>  In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports
>  transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package
>  management, per-user profiles, and garbage collection.  When used as a
>  standalone GNU/Linux distribution, Guix offers a declarative,
>  stateless approach to operating system configuration management.  Guix
>  is highly customizable and hackable through Guile programming
>  interfaces and extensions to the Scheme language.
