Whitewater Foundry Information

At Whitewater Foundry, we forge the future of cross-platform development by bringing the best of Linux into the Windows ecosystem. Founded with the vision of empowering developers and enterprises to work seamlessly across operating systems, we specialize in creating and maintaining innovative solutions for the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Our portfolio includes: * Pengwin – the first Linux distribution built specifically for WSL, making Linux on Windows fast, accessible, and developer-friendly. * Fedora Remix for WSL – an officially recognized Fedora experience tailored for WSL users. * Raft WSL Enterprise – our flagship enterprise solution, enabling IT teams to customize, secure, and centrally manage Linux distributions through Microsoft Intune and integrate with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. We work closely with the open-source community and partner with major technology ecosystems, including Microsoft and Red Hat, to ensure our tools meet enterprise standards for security, manageability, and performance. What makes us different is our focus on bridging worlds: * For developers, we provide powerful, intuitive tools that accelerate productivity. * For IT admins, we deliver enterprise-grade solutions that integrate with existing Microsoft 365 and Azure environments. * For the community, we bring Debian-based, Fedora-based, and Enterprise Linux-based distributions to WSL, enhancing their Windows integration with customizations and scripts. All changes are open on our GitHub. Our name reflects our identity: Whitewater symbolises the energy and turbulence of rapids, while Foundry conveys the act of forging. Together, they represent our mission: to harness the momentum of open source and shape it into stable, polished solutions for the modern enterprise. From independent developers to Fortune 500 companies, Whitewater Foundry is trusted worldwide to make Linux on Windows not just possible, but powerful.
