What is GNOME?

You might have heard of GNOME before! It's an international project aimed at building a complete desktop environment using free software. Basically, it provides that graphical user interface we all see on our computers. This includes creating frameworks for software development, picking out applications for users, and managing things like launching apps, handling files, and managing windows.

The GNOME project is part of the larger GNU Project and works well with Unix-like operating systems—especially Linux. It even fits into Solaris as part of its Java Desktop System!

The name used to stand for GNU Network Object Model Environment, but that's not really used anymore. What’s cool about GNOME is that it focuses heavily on simplicity and usability—making sure everything just works without a hassle.
