What is Nautilus FOR LINUX?

Nautilus

Nautilus is a cool open source file manager that helps you get to your files on any Linux-based system. It's mainly used with the GNOME desktop environment. With Nautilus, you can easily do all the basic stuff like copy, paste, remove, rename, or move your files around.

Familiar Interface for Ubuntu Users

If you're an Ubuntu user, Nautilus will feel like home. That's because Canonical uses a version of Nautilus as the default file manager for Ubuntu, which is one of the most popular free operating systems out there!

User-Friendly Layout

The layout is simple and split into two parts: a sidebar and the main view where all your files are displayed. The sidebar lets you quickly access Places, Devices, and Network locations. Plus, you can add bookmarks for even quicker access!

Accessing Files Made Easy

In recent versions of GNOME, clicking on the Files entry in the panel opens up options to go to specific locations—whether they're remote or local. You can also connect to servers (like FTP or SFTP), check your bookmarks, open a new window, and tweak some default settings.

Search and Sort Your Files

The main window makes it easy to search for files and folders. You can change how things look by switching between list view or thumbnail view. Need to sort files? No problem! You can sort them by name, size, type, date modified/accessed, zoom in or out, reverse display order, and even see hidden files.

Customize Your Preferences

You can make Nautilus work just how you want it by tweaking its Preferences dialog. This lets you show info under icon names like file sizes or number of items in folders. You can also change what columns show up in list view and adjust file preview settings.

Installation Made Simple

Nautilus comes as a single source archive that works with almost any Linux flavor out there! While there aren't specific binary files for every distribution, installing it from your operating system's default software channels is super easy.

Your Go-To File Manager on GNOME

If you've got GNOME as your main desktop environment (which many do!), you've probably seen a launcher called Files on your dock. Clicking it opens up a familiar window where you can see all your Home folder's contents and navigate through different parts of your file system.
