Built for power users & developers

GNOME is a free, elegant desktop environment loved by millions of Linux users worldwide. But finding apps that truly look and feel native? That's where the Gnome Starter Pack comes in.

We've crafted 20 splendid applications that integrate seamlessly with your GNOME desktop. Built with GTK4 and libadwaita, every app respects your system theme, follows HIG conventions, and feels like it shipped with GNOME itself — because that's the standard power users and developers deserve.

All apps are free and open source (GPL-3.0), available as DEBs, Flatpaks, and AppImages.
