As it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a global open ecosystem to build a Euroshack. Inspired by the Frugal Manifesto, we envision the Euroshack as the first agile prototype of a truly open EuroStack: modest in form, ambitious in purpose. Grounded in pragmatism and powered by free and open software, the Euroshack avoids nationalist overtones and instead champions a scalable, dependable core. “Shack” is a humble name, but it reflects a bold mission: to secure digital sovereignty and protect our electronic freedoms in Europe from the mood swings of oligarchs. With its modular, adaptable structure, the Euroshack is built to grow, evolve, and empower.
