Project Trident or simple Trident is a desktop operating system based on TrueOS. In addition to all features of BSD distributions like security, stability, and reliability, Trident delivers a set of self-developed utilities to provide an easy-to-use system for beginners and advanced users.

Project Trident can be considered as a continuation of the TrueOS desktop edition. This project took birth when the TrueOS project decided to become a core distribution. ie, a distribution that acts as a base for other distributions. The Trident project is lead by some of the TrueOS project members and they also invite the contributions from open source community.

Project Trident will be using Lumina as default desktop environment. It is a simple and functional desktop environment developed by TrueOS team.

On October 2019, the Project Trident team announced the plan for switching the existing TrueOS foundation to Void Linux. The team is working towards this objective and it expected that, the first Void Linux based release would be available by January 2020.
