"Also: The long-rumored ChromeOS and Android merger just got its strongest hint yet - and I'm hyped SDesk opts for the GNOME desktop, which is configured to resemble a "standard" desktop that would be familiar to both Windows and MacOS users. On the interface, you'll find a panel, a menu, a top bar, favorites, and desktop icons. On the top bar, there's the Workspaces button (far left), the time/date (which, when clicked, opens notifications and calendar), and the system tray."
"The one curiosity I encountered was Swirl, which isn't based on either Chromium or Firefox. In fact, I haven't had much luck finding any information about this web browser. I can tell you that Swirl is fairly minimal, with very few settings. It works fine, but I'm not ready to recommend a browser, since I can't find much information about it. You can always install Chromium or Firefox using Octopi. I installed Firefox and it runs quite well."
SDesk is an Arch-based distribution that presents a familiar, straightforward desktop experience. The distribution uses GNOME configured to mimic a standard desktop with panel, menu, top bar, favorites, and desktop icons. The top bar includes a Workspaces button, time/date that opens notifications and calendar, and a system tray. The distribution ships with common preinstalled applications including a web browser and office suite, and supports Octopi and Flatpak for additional software. A browser named Swirl is included but appears minimal and undocumented, so installing Chromium or Firefox via Octopi is recommended.
