Elementary OS (officially styled as "elementary OS") is a Linux distribution. It is based on Ubuntu LTS. Its goal is "thoughtful, capable, and ethical computing"[1]. The operating system uses the Pantheon desktop environment. It is developed by elementary, Inc.
The design philosophy of elementary OS is very similar to macOS, visually and in user experience.[2]However, the elementary developers say that they have a lot of differences.
The human interface guidelines of elementary OS say that it should instantly be clear how to use a program. The three core rules that the developers set for themselves were concision (shortness), accessible configuration, and minimal documentation.
The Pantheon desktop environment uses a lot of code from GNOME, most noticeably GTK. The desktop has multiple workspaces to organize windows.[3]
It has a menu bar and a dock, similar to macOS.
elementary OS were originally GNOME themes, and later became its own Linux distribution. [4]
