X.Org Foundation

The X.Org Foundation is an organization that develops and maintains the X.Org Server, a critical component of many Linux and Unix-like operating systems. The X.Org Server manages how the computer’s display interacts with the hardware, enabling graphics, windows, and user interfaces to work smoothly. Think of it as the bridge between your computer’s software and your monitor, handling visual outputs. The foundation oversees the development process, supports community contributions, and ensures the software remains open, reliable, and compatible across different systems. Essentially, it helps make graphical interfaces on Linux-based systems functional and accessible.
