"Leave it to the Linux community to come up with something that no other operating system can do. It happens all the time, and the creativity and ingenuity of these developers never cease to amaze me. Such is the case with a new desktop environment called Orbitiny. The goal of this new desktop, which has been built from scratch using Qt and C++, is to be both familiar and unique."
"You read that right: Orbitiny runs on top of your existing desktop (such as KDE Plasma or GNOME), like a regular app. This unique desktop includes the following features: Orbitiny can be used as a portable desktop. Copy the required files to a USB drive, plug it into a running Linux computer, and run the command to start it. The desktop will then appear for you to use."
Orbitiny is a new desktop environment built from scratch using Qt and C++. Orbitiny runs on top of existing desktops and window managers, functioning like a regular application. The design is modular so individual components can fail without crashing the entire desktop. Features include a file manager with file and content search, a plugin-capable desktop panel with full drag-and-drop, a built-in clipboard manager, a device manager, a comprehensive start menu with sidebar, a dashboard for running tasks and installed apps, desktop gestures, folder icon emblems, and the ability to join or paste text into files. Orbitiny is portable, free to use, and runs on any Linux distribution from a USB drive.
