Sailfish OS is a mobile operating system built on top of the Meego fork called the Mer project. Sailfish OS is developed by Finnish startup Jolla mobile using an open development model. Sailfish OS features an advanced UI, radically different from the Meego UI.

Sailfish OS is a mobile operating system built on top of Mer project and Qt. The UI is built with QML and QtQuick and the standard QtMobility APIs are supported. Sailfish OS uses the Meego fork Mer as the main operating system. Mer is centered around a ultra-portable Linux + HTML5/QML/JS Core. For Sailfish OS, Mer project serves as the core OS, providing a functional core Linux stack that boots up to the screen, but without any UI and without any hardware adaptation. Sailfish OS adds a custom UI with an advanced user experienced optimized for the multitasking capabilities of the operating system. Sailfish OS is being developed by the Finnish startup Jolla Mobile.
