There isn't anything like that. Mer has patterns, and we have a @Mer
Core pattern which provides a minimal system that can be booted if you
have a kernel and a boot loader. What you need is to inspect the content
of @Mer Core pattern.
I am considering purchasing an Improv board which has Mer
preinstalled. I need a full desktop linux distro.
You need KDE packages I think, you should find them on OBS.
I was disappointed
reading that Mer is web based. I don't want to store my data in a
cloud vulnerable to nation state spying and crackers cracking.
Mer is not about that. Your point doesn't really make sense because Mer
is just a linux distribution. You can have anything installed on it
including a WebKit/HTML5 view, a full desktop system, a webserver,
etc... Just to be clear: Mer Project doesn't provide any web or cloud
service at all. The only service which is provided is OBS that is used
to build packages.
At the very least, is a plain text editor and a PDF viewer
preinstalled?
You should ask this question to Active guys, we cannot answer about
this because Mer is not about this.
Anyway probably you are looking for something which is based on Mer.

Davide Bettio.
