School children in Spanish Galicia work with Open Source Software

The Corunix project consists of spreading computing and digital practices at school with GNU/Linux Software. The project is especially focused on the creation of a custom distribution focused on education, for the classrooms of La Coruña City council’s education intranet.


Corunix represents a major achievement for the City. It provides the pupils of all municipal schools with a complete office applications suite, advanced multimedia facilities, some 8 educative tools for maths, language, drawing, music etc, and many educative games to enjoy learning. In order to support and develop the project itself, a Corunix website has been created and acts as a collaborative platform for volunteers, developers and end user. It is also a source of technical information and exchange.
