 '''Linux''' is a free and open source, monolithic, Unix-like, operating system kernel originally developed by [[w:Linus Torvalds|Linus Torvalds]] in 1991. By extension, the term also refers to full operating systems that combine the Linux kernel with a set of software in order to provide a complete working system. These so-called Linux distributions usually bundle GNU tools, which led to the combination also often being called GNU/Linux.
-Operating systems such as [[Android]] and [[Chrome OS]] are also based on the Linux kernel; however, they are not usually considered Linux distributions due to the large differences in their architecture as compared to a conventional GNU/Linux system.
