hi - yes I found that distro also a few days ago. It looks nice but I could not figure out how to install extensions. It seems not to have a package management system?

Do you know where the originator is located?

The boot screen looks like Tiny Core -
t(w)o be(ers) or not t(w)o be(ers) that is the question
