systemd
systemd is a suite of basic building blocks for a Linux system. It runs as PID 1 and is the system and service manager that bootstraps the rest of the userspace, supervises long-running services, and exposes a coordinated set of D-Bus and Varlink IPC interfaces for managing services (systemd1), users and sessions (logind), network interfaces (networkd), name resolution (resolved), containers/VMs (machined), home directories (homed), boot entries (boot1/sysupdate1), system hostname/locale/timedate, OOM protection (oomd), portable services, and image imports. The project also publishes a stable command-line surface (systemctl, journalctl, networkctl, resolvectl, loginctl, machinectl, hostnamectl, timedatectl, localectl, busctl, varlinkctl, bootctl, homectl, coredumpctl, oomctl, portablectl, importctl, systemd-analyze and more). systemd is dual-licensed (LGPL-2.1-or-later for libraries and most code, GPL-2.0-or-later for select tools) and developed openly on GitHub at systemd/systemd.
systemd publishes 34 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Boot API, Cache API, Cgroups API, and 31 more. Tagged areas include Boot, Cgroups, Containers, D-Bus, and Init.
The systemd catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
systemd’s developer surface includes documentation, release notes, changelog, tooling, and 38 more developer resources.
