Planktum is a Live-CD designed for immigrant communities to enhance their access to internet communication tools.
Planktum boasts a simplified boot process, and the friendly GUI has an aesthetic touch that resonates with the visual culture of the target user group. The software has been developed with the intention to distribute it around various immigrant communities, including African, Latino, and Chinese communities. Upon launching the software, the user is greeted by a graphical interface containing 4 basic icons on the desktop, providing instant access to communication applications such as Skype, Email, Web browser, and Instant Messaging Applications.
Planktum can be built from various Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) such as Gollum, Jaber, and GNOME Meating among others. The development team has taken inspiration from the various pool of resources available in the open-source world, using them to create a functional software project that wouldn't have been possible without these resources.
The software developers are open to feedback from users to help improve the software further. To send your feedback or get in touch, you can reach the development team via kdagATautistici.org. Overall, Planktum is an excellent software project that has rightfully earned its place in the market and is a valuable resource for various immigrant communities.
