Portal:Cinnamon/Intro

Cinnamon is a Linux desktop that offers advanced innovative features and a traditional user experience.

The layout of the desktop is similar to what we have in MATE and its predecessor: GNOME 2.x. The underlying technology is derived from GNOME Shell, with the emphasis placed on making users feel at home and providing them with an easy-to-use and comfortable desktop experience.

Cinnamon is the default desktop environment for the Nelson GNU/Linux-libre distributions e the Linux Mint distributions.
