General
A desktop environment (DE) is an implementation of the desktop metaphor made of a bundle of programs which share a common graphical user interface (GUI).
It is sometimes described as a graphical shell.
With manjaro you can use many desktop environments. Both Official and Community ISO's of various DE's are available.
You can download them here:
- Including: Architect, Gnome, KDE, and XFCE.
- Including: Awesome, bspwm, Budgie, Cinnamon, Deepin, i3, LXDE, LXQt, MATE, and Openbox.
