Raspberry Pi OS is a <a href="Unix-like" title="Unix-like">Unix-like</a> operating system developed for the <a href="Raspberry_Pi" title="Raspberry Pi">Raspberry Pi</a> line of <a href="Single-board_computer" title="Single-board computer">single-board computers</a>. Based on <a href="Debian" title="Debian">Debian</a>, a <a href="Linux_distribution" title="Linux distribution">Linux distribution</a>, it is maintained by <a href="Raspberry_Pi_Holdings" title="Raspberry Pi Holdings">Raspberry Pi Holdings</a> and optimized for the Pi's hardware, with low memory requirements and support for both <a href="32-bit_computing" title="32-bit computing">32-bit</a> and <a href="64-bit_computing" title="64-bit computing">64-bit</a> architectures. Originally released in July 2012 under the name Raspbian, it was introduced shortly after the launch of the first Raspberry Pi model.<a href="#cite_note-Raspbian_release_notes-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a>

The operating system is compatible with all Raspberry Pi models except the <a href="Raspberry_Pi_Pico" class="mw-redirect" title="Raspberry Pi Pico">Raspberry Pi Pico</a> microcontroller. It is available in several configurations: a standard edition, a "Lite" version without a <a href="Desktop_environment" title="Desktop environment">desktop environment</a>, and a "Full" version that includes additional software such as <a href="LibreOffice" title="LibreOffice">LibreOffice</a> and <a href="Wolfram_Mathematica" class="mw-redirect" title="Wolfram Mathematica">Wolfram Mathematica</a>. The operating system is available as a free download and can be installed using the official Raspberry Pi Imager utility. It is also sold preloaded on official <a href="MicroSD_card" class="mw-redirect" title="MicroSD card">microSD cards</a>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

Raspbian was first developed by Mike Thompson and Peter Green as an independent and unofficial port of Debian to the Raspberry Pi.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> The first build was released on 15 July 2012.<a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a> As the Raspberry Pi had no officially provided operating system at the time, the Raspberry Pi Foundation built on the work by the Raspbian project and began producing and releasing their own operating system images of the software.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> The Foundation's first release of Raspbian, which now referred both to the community project as well as the official operating system, was announced on 10 September 2013.<a href="#cite_note-Raspbian_release_notes-3">[3]</a>

On 28 May 2020, the Raspberry Pi Foundation announced a beta <a href="64-bit_computing" title="64-bit computing">64-bit</a> version. However, this version was not based on Raspbian, instead taking its <a href="Userland_(computing)" class="mw-redirect" title="Userland (computing)">user space</a> software from Debian.<a href="#cite_note-Piltch_2020-8">[8]</a> When the Foundation did not want to use the name Raspbian to refer to software that was not based on the Raspbian project, the name of the officially provided operating system images was changed to Raspberry Pi OS.<a href="#cite_note-Piltch_2020-8">[8]</a> This change was also carried over to the <a href="32-bit_computing" title="32-bit computing">32-bit</a> images that they distributed, though it continued to be based on Raspbian.<a href="#cite_note-Piltch_2020-8">[8]</a> The 64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS was officially released on 2 February 2022.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Features">Features</h2></div>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="User_interface">User interface</h3></div>

The Raspberry Pi OS user interface is optimized for Raspberry Pi hardware and tuned to have low base memory requirements, aiming to deliver a lightweight, fast, and energy-efficient desktop experience.<a href="#cite_note-Long_2016-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a><a href="#cite_note-Customise_desktop-12">[12]</a> It is built on the <a href="Wayland_(protocol)" title="Wayland (protocol)">Wayland</a> display protocol, using labwc as its <a href="Compositing_manager" title="Compositing manager">compositing manager</a>, which is based on <a href="Wayland_(protocol)" title="Wayland (protocol)">wlroots</a>, a modular Wayland implementation that underpins several other compositors.<a href="#cite_note-Long_2024-13">[13]</a>

The operating system previously used the <a href="X_Window_System" title="X Window System">X Window System</a>. A transition to Wayland began with the Bullseye release in 2021, which introduced the <a href="Mutter_(software)" title="Mutter (software)">mutter</a> window manager to support both X and Wayland environments. In the Bookworm release of 2023, wayfire was adopted as a dedicated Wayland compositor. However, performance issues on older Raspberry Pi models prompted a search for a more suitable alternative. In 2024, developers ultimately selected labwc, a lightweight compositor that better matched the hardware's capabilities. Following collaboration and extensive optimization, labwc now offers performance comparable to X across all models, and Raspberry Pi OS now defaults to Wayland.<a href="#cite_note-Long_2024-13">[13]</a>

The interface is designed to feel familiar to users of <a href="MacOS" title="MacOS">macOS</a> and <a href="Microsoft_Windows" title="Microsoft Windows">Microsoft Windows</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Customise_desktop-12">[12]</a> It provides a traditional desktop environment with a top menu bar that includes an application menu, shortcuts to frequently used programs, and system controls such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, volume, and clock.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_components">Other components</h3></div>

Raspberry Pi OS originally included the <a href="GNOME_Web" title="GNOME Web">Epiphany</a> web browser, but transitioned to <a href="Chromium_(web_browser)" title="Chromium (web browser)">Chromium</a> in 2016.<a href="#cite_note-Long_2016-10">[10]</a> <a href="Firefox" title="Firefox">Firefox</a> was added as an additional pre-installed browser option in 2023.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Reception">Reception</h2></div>

According to Raspberry Pi Imager usage statistics, Raspberry Pi OS accounted for 67% of all operating system downloads for the Raspberry Pi in May 2025, followed by <a href="Ubuntu" title="Ubuntu">Ubuntu</a> at 9%.<a href="#cite_note-rpi-imager_Stats-2">[2]</a>

In a 2015 review, Jesse Smith of <a href="DistroWatch" title="DistroWatch">DistroWatch</a> found that while Raspbian was not well-suited for heavier desktop workloads, it provided a functional experience with its lightweight environment. He noted that the system was responsive when running a modest number of applications, but struggled with more resource-intensive software such as <a href="LibreOffice" title="LibreOffice">LibreOffice</a> or <a href="Firefox" title="Firefox">Firefox</a>.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a>

In a January 2024 review for <a href="Ars_Technica" title="Ars Technica">Ars Technica</a>, Andrew Cunningham tested Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) on a Pi 5 with 8 GB of RAM and found it functional for general-purpose desktop use, but with notable limitations. While it handled basic tasks like writing, web browsing, and audio editing well, the OS lacked modern conveniences such as <a href="Snap_(computer_graphics)" title="Snap (computer graphics)">window snapping</a>, a notification center, refined window borders, and smooth <a href="Multi-monitor" title="Multi-monitor">multi-monitor</a> performance. Its software ecosystem was also constrained by limited native app availability for ARM Linux, often requiring users to rely on web-based versions of services like Slack, Zoom, and Dropbox.<a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Microsoft_repository_controversy">Microsoft repository controversy</h3></div>

In January 2021, the Raspberry Pi OS package <code>raspberrypi-sys-mods</code> added a Microsoft <a href="GPG_encryption" class="mw-redirect" title="GPG encryption">GPG encryption</a> key and repository configuration to the <a href="APT_(software)" title="APT (software)">APT</a> package manager, enabling easier installation of <a href="Visual_Studio_Code" title="Visual Studio Code">Visual Studio Code</a>, a <a href="Source-code_editor" title="Source-code editor">source code editor</a>. As a result, the system contacted Microsoft’s servers during update checks, prompting concerns among users due to privacy considerations and Microsoft's <a href="Microsoft_and_open_source" title="Microsoft and open source">once-adversarial history</a> with the open source software community. The repository configuration was later removed.<a href="#cite_note-Salter_2021-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a><a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Versions">Versions</h2></div>

Raspberry Pi OS is available in three main variants:

<ul><li>Raspberry Pi OS Lite – a minimal version without a desktop environment</li>

<li>Raspberry Pi OS with desktop – includes the desktop environment and a limited number of pre-installed applications</li>

<li>Raspberry Pi OS with desktop and recommended software – includes the desktop environment and the full suite of recommended pre-installed applications</li></ul>

Each variant is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a><a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a>

A "legacy" branch has been available since December 2021. It is based on the previous stable release of Debian, allowing for continued use of older software while still receiving security and hardware support updates. All standard variants (Lite, with desktop, and with desktop and recommended software) are offered in this legacy form.<a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a>

New major versions of Debian are released every two years, typically in the summer of odd-numbered years (e.g., 2023, 2025, 2027). Raspberry Pi OS ports of each new Debian release generally follow a few months later, usually in the fall.<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a>

Raspberry Pi OS can be purchased pre-installed on a <a href="MicroSD_card" class="mw-redirect" title="MicroSD card">microSD card</a> or downloaded as a <code>.img</code> disk image file to be written to an SD card or other media. Official documentation recommends a minimum of 16 GB for the Lite version and at least 32 GB for versions with a desktop environment.<a href="#cite_note-28">[28]</a>

The Raspberry Pi Imager utility was introduced in March 2020 to simplify the installation of a disk image file onto an SD card or other media. Available for <a href="MacOS" title="MacOS">macOS</a>, Raspberry Pi OS, <a href="Ubuntu" title="Ubuntu">Ubuntu</a>, and <a href="Windows" class="mw-redirect" title="Windows">Windows</a>, it allows users to download and write the disk image file in a single application. In addition to Raspberry Pi OS, the utility supports a variety of third-party operating systems.<a href="#cite_note-29">[29]</a>
