Hyperbola est un projet de Logiciel Libre et de Culture Libre qui vise à fournir une distribution GNU/Linux entièrement libre, appelée Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre. Elle est basée sur des paquets d'Arch GNU/Linux ainsi que des patches de sécurité et de stabilité de Debian GNU/Linux, optimisés pour les processeurs i686 et x86_64, et assure une prise en charge sur le long terme (LTS : Long-Term Support). Hyperbola cherche à conserver ses paquets et ses outils d'administration simples, stables et sûrs. L'objectif principal est d'offrir à l'utilisateur un contrôle total de son système, grâce à 100% de Logiciels Libres et de Culture Libre.

Le développement est orienté vers un équilibre entre simplicité, élégance, propreté du code et modernité des Logiciels Libres.

La légerté et le design simple de cette distribution lui permette d'être facilement extensible et malléable, afin de concevoir n'importe quel type de système.

As is described in this entire page, Hyperbola is a free (libre) system distribution aiming to replace Arch GNU/Linux completely. However, Hyperbola deviates from its base by aiming for compliance with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS), long-term support, stability, security, simplicity, privacy, and having release cycle similar to, and corrections/patches based on, Debian GNU/Linux.

However, contrary to common belief, Hyperbola's origin isn't related to Parabola. In fact, Hyperbola started as a personal practice made by some Parabola developers in order to provide FHS compliance and predictable release cycle for their individual personal use, but the debates between Parabola and the original Hyperbola contributors didn't impact in the origin of Hyperbola.
