SUSE Studio was an online Linux software creation tool by SUSE. Users can develop their own Linux distro, software appliance or virtual appliance, mainly choosing which applications and packages they want on their "custom" Linux and how it looks.

Users can choose between openSUSE or SUSE Linux Enterprise as a base and pick from a variety of pre-configured images including jeOS, minimal server, GNOME and KDE desktops.

The SUSE Studio service was shut down on the 15th of February 2018.

Image Formats and Booting Options

SUSE Studio supports the following image formats / booting options:

SUSE Studio in use

On SUSE Gallery one can find a catalog of the images created in SUSE Studio. These are available for download as well as immediate deployment on the supported cloud platforms. Upon logging in, cloning and test-driving images is possible.

A number of projects, both related to the openSUSE Project[2] and independent,[3] use SUSE Gallery as the preferred way to get virtual- and Disk images to their users.

SUSE Studio is what powered the fan-made Chrome OS, which was a semi-stripped-down system loaded with the developers' version of Google Chrome, Google web application links, and OpenOffice.org (not to be confused with Google's "Chrome OS").[4]

The many desktop environments supported (not limited to):

  • brltty
    • JeOS
    • Server
  • Qt only
    • LXQt
  • Gtk+ only
    • GNOME
      • Cinnamon
      • MATE
    • XFCE
    • Enlightenment
  • Qt and Gtk+ integrated
    • KDE

Shutdown

On November 9, 2017, Novell announced that they would be shutting down SUSE Studio Online on February 15, 2018. SUSE Studio Express will replace the service, because of previous merging with Open Build Service and SUSE Studio Online.
