hey there! i'm dragon — a student currently in school,

i'm interested in cybersecurity, programming, linux, and building things that actually work.

currently learning, experimenting, breaking stuff, and making things.

still learning.

What I'm doing:

• Trying Bug Bounties
• Making tools in python
• Learning Hacking
• Playing games all the time
• Learning coding

Copper is a daily-driving Linux distro built from source — not a rebrand of Debian or Arch. We build the kernel, the libc (musl), and the userland ourselves, and write the parts that make it Copper ourselves too: the shell (copper-sh), the init system (copper-init), and the first-boot setup wizard. Arch and Debian are good, but we wanted to do it our way — their source was used for reference, nothing more.

The build pipeline produces a bootable ISO (~600 MB) that boots in a VM, with XFCE as the desktop target. Wired networking, a hotfix system (copper charge / copper rollback), and a real rollback path are in place — WiFi and the full desktop stack are still being worked out.

Deadlight is the security-focused twin of Copper — same base, different purpose. Where Copper is for daily use, Deadlight is aimed at cybersecurity work: penetration testing and security research, with the tooling preinstalled so it works out of the box instead of needing a setup pass afterwards.

Copper Linux and Deadlight Linux are both made by me and my team.
