Ruiyuan was a privately owned Chinese Linux distribution. It was initially released in 2012, built from open-source software components and designed to cater to the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises in China.

Ruiyuan was developed by Beijing-based company, Ruiyuan Technology Company. The distribution was expected to provide a cost-effective alternative to other Linux distributions popular in the region, such as Red Flag Linux.

The operating system included a range of features and functionalities that promoted it as a suitable choice for business environments, particularly in the context of the Chinese IT market. Ruiyuan also featured a user-friendly interface and allowed users to switch between English and Chinese languages easily.

While Ruiyuan showcased potential as a viable Linux choice in China, its current status as an active project is unknown. Queries directed at the Ruiyuan community online indicate that the project might have been discontinued. There are still available mirrors of past versions on various Linux download platforms, indicating it still has some residual user base albeit not substantial.

Further questions regarding the status of the distribution cannot be assured, given the hesitancy of former users to comment on the possible outcome of Ruiyuan's decline or languor due to fading support.
