UberStudent is a free and open-source computer operating system and collection of programs aimed especially toward higher education and secondary students and their teachers and schools. The lead developer of the Linux distribution placed the project on hold in May 2019 due to his son being amid a protracted battle with Acute lymphoblastic leukemia. UberStudent's current release is 4.3, dubbed Heraclitus. The distribution uses its own dedicated software repository. It can be run from a live CD, USB flash drive, or installed onto a computer's hard drive from either of those mediums.
