About this tag
The holo core tag covers Valve and Collabora’s early AArch64 port of Arch Linux for the upcoming Steam Frame headset. Holo Core is intended to provide the Linux foundation for SteamOS, rather than serve as a consumer download, firmware image, or general-purpose Arm release. Coverage focuses on the developer preview, including source packages, compiled binaries, and an Arm development container for testing and package builds.

This archive tracks the technology’s development and its role in Steam Frame’s software stack.
