Framework (frame.work) is a laptop brand that sells modular laptops.
- The SSD and RAM memory are easily swaped.
- The motherboards, with a soldered CPU, are also upgradeable.
- They sell spare parts for keyboard, battery, speakers, display, etc.
- The laptop has 4 embedded USB-C ports that can be filled with "Expansion Cards". These expansion cards are cool gadgets that look like a Game Boy cartridge. They can be used to either add ports (effectively, they are USB-C-to-whatever adaptors) or to add expanded disk memory.
Actually, you can buy the parts and make a kind of weird x86 large rasperry pi with it. They even offer a few open source designs so you can 3D print a case for it yourself.
