GNOME Core Applications
Software applications built with the GNOME philosophy in mind
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The GNOME Core Applications (also known as Apps for GNOME) are a software suite that is packaged with GNOME, a free and open-source desktop environment. The suite provides a consistent look and feel to the GNOME desktop, utilizes the Adwaita design language and tightly integrates with the GNOME desktop.[4] The suite is developed and maintained through GNOME's official GitLab instance.[5]
