The KDE neon project offers a continually updated rolling Linux-based computer operating system built around the latest KDE technologies. It usually relies on the latest LTS (Long Term Support) version of the Ubuntu Linux operating system, so it’s a natural move for the development team to rebase it on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Dubbed Bionic Beaver, Ubuntu LTS 18.04 LTS comes with numerous improvements and recent GNU/Linux and Open Source technologies. Among these, we can mention the Linux 4.15 kernel series, systemd-resolved as default DNS resolver, netplan.io, OpenJDK 10, and various security enhancements.
