Try Manjaro in Your Web-Browser!
Whether you are currently using Windows, Mac-OS, or a Linux-based operating system (including Manjaro, of course), it is now possible to try out the latest release of Manjaro on-line, without having to download or install it first. This is because, in another exciting development, Manjaro is the world's first operating system that can be run entirely through your favourite internet browser!
Provided you have a broadband internet connection and the latest version of Java installed, click on the link provided below to be taken directly to redpipe.net, the world's first on-line operating system testing website.
It is not necessary to register or submit any personal details to use this service. Once there, you will be able to select from four different flavours of Manjaro 0.8.2:
- KDE
- Gnome 3, and
- XFCE
Assuming that one or more of the desired flavours are free to use at the time, simply select your preferred desktop to use and then click on the 'Start this OS' button to try it out for up to an hour at a time. There's no danger of damaging Manjaro or your own operating system, so feel free to explore, play, and experiment with it as much as you wish.
Please note however, that as it is being run through your internet-browser, this live version of Manjaro won't be anywhere near as fast or snappy as the real thing!

Trying Manjaro when using Manjaro any one?
Hi Carl,
I congratulate you on this development – it’s great news for those wanting to try out this disto.
However, claiming it to be the “world’s first operating system that can be run entirely through your favourite internet browser” is a false statement.
Some Linux distros can be run/tested using the browser already since many years now – OpenSUSE for example, comes to mind.
There have also been many commercial services offering users access to Windows or Linux VMs via the browser, allowing users to access their apps/data from any computer (eg: JPC2 or Onlive). Some of these services have been present for at least the past 10 years (ever since there was a Java client for VNC).
Then there’s also JSLinux – thats written entirely in Javascript and runs *within* your actual browser (and not using a remote VM).
Anyways my point is that you shouldn’t make this false claim in your article – it only discredits the distro and lessens the value of the great service you guys are providing.
Strong words, my friend. Being mistaken and making false claims (i.e. lying) are not one in the same thing.
RedPipe.net claims to be the first on-line operating tester, and Manjaro was the first operating system to be made available on it.
Thanks for the clarification. Now can you edit your article please?
No!
Or at least, not until I have checked out your claims for myself.
Hi there. I’m loving my opening experience of Manjaro as a complete Linux newbie – after trying ArchBang & feeling completely lost, I am LOVING Manjaro! Just to let u know, I’ve tried the redpipe.net link on Firefox and Safari and get what I’m guessing is an error message in German each time. I look forward to this being sorted out, so that I can suggest it to friends. Apologies if it’s a mistake on my side but if not, it might be worth taking down the post until it’s sorted out. Fantastic work guys!!! Loving it. SofaSufi.
Thanks for letting us know. Yes, happened to me, too. As such, I’ve also pulled reference to this from our wiki.
Hopefully it’ll get sorted out by the redpipe chaps soon.
