AsteroidOS - Free your wrist!

AsteroidOS is an open source Linux distribution that runs on many different smartwatches. It uses Qt and QML to provide the graphical interface.

One of the main goals of AsteroidOS is to provide users with greater control over their devices and data privacy. The operating system is fully customizable, and users can modify it to meet their specific needs.

This talk is by one of the maintainers of this project, which is now 11 years old.

Topics covered include:
- What is AsteroidOS?
- Why not just use the original watch OS?
- So how does this work?
- What apps are available now?
- Is it entirely open source?
- How does the sausage get made?
- What can I do?
- How do I create a watchface?
- How do I create an application?
- How do I port a new watch?
- What's the future?

As usual, pizza and beverages will be provided and the meeting will be held at the North Carolina College of Textiles, room 2207, 1020 Main Campus Drive, Raleigh NC, 27606 at 7:00 PM.

There is an underground parking deck next to the College at the Monteith Engineering Parking Deck. Parking is free after 5 PM.
