A Mini Computer Fit for the Rebellion: Pilet’s Open-Source Power

Pilet is what happens when open-source flexibility meets retro-futuristic design—it’s hackable, portable, and straight out of Star Wars.
If the Pilet modular mini-computer system showed up in Andor, it wouldn’t need a single modification—it already looks like something a Rebel spy would use to slice into an Imperial mainframe. But this isn’t just a sci-fi prop. Available now exclusively through Kickstarter, Pilet is a fully functional, open-source modular mini-computer built for portability, customization, and real-world computing freedom.
The Pilet 5 is a compact console variant with a 5-inch touchscreen, versatile input devices, and a thumb-typing-friendly keyboard (currently in development), all powered by QMK firmware, making it fully customizable. The Pilet 7 expands on the design with a 7-inch touchscreen and runs KDE Plasma by default, offering a full-fledged Linux experience with true flexibility beyond the limitations of Android or iOS. Whether you’re coding on the go, tinkering in bed, or just want a portable workstation that looks straight out of the Star Wars universe, Pilet delivers. Hackable, modular, and undeniably cool, this is the mini-computer for those who dream of both open-source computing and a galaxy far, far away.
