What is Slackware?
The two main principles of Slackware are to be both stable and easy to use. Slackware's stability stems from being one of the earliest Linux distributions. Its simple design can be attributed to its "keep it simple stupid" (KISS) principle.
Slackware's package format is .tar, more commonly referred to as tarballs. Slackware utilizes slapt-get for package management. Slackware's slapt-get emulates Debians apt-get system. The main difference in the two is slapt-get offers fewer, more simple options. Please note that slapt-get does not provide dependency resolution which may be a source of confusion for less experienced web developers.
