About Us

What is Stuy Linux

Stuy Linux is Stuyvesant's only initiative to promote the use of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) programs and the GNU/Linux projects.

What do we do?

We work in collaboration with the Stuyvesant CS department to host weekly meetings that provide students with an extracurricular space that encourages them to explore, investigate, and understand the inner workings of the software that runs the world around them.

What are some things Stuy Linux does?

We host our own shared compute cluster on an Orange Pi with Linux Containers (LXD), allowing us to provide each member with their own personal root-access Alpine Linux environment for experiments with different tools. In addition, we host our own IRC server, irc.stuylinux.org bridged to a Gitter/Matrix channel (#stuy-linux:gitter.im) and a Discord server to engage with our community.

What happens in a Stuy Linux Meeting

Meetings revolve around collaborative exercises in real-life applications of software tools written in any language available, from C to Rust, Go to Python, or JavaScript to Java! After developing problem-solving skills with these technologies, we tackle CMU picoCTF challenges to emphasize how rewarding it can be to explore different avenues in the software and cybersecurity world.
