Release of UbuntuDDE 20.04 distribution with Deepin desktop

Published release of the distribution UbuntuDDE 20.04, based on the codebase Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and delivered with the DDE (Deepin Desktop Environment) graphical interface. The project is currently an unofficial edition of Ubuntu, but the developers are in negotiations with Canonical to include UbuntuDDE in the official Ubuntu distributions. The size of ISO image 2.2 GB.

UbuntuDDE features the release of the Deepin desktop 5.0 and a set of specialized applications, developed by the Deepin Linux project, including the Deepin File Manager, DMusic music player, DMovie video player, and DTalk messaging system. Unlike Deepin Linux, it features a redesigned interface and supplies the Ubuntu Software Center instead of the Deepin application store, with support for Snap and DEB packages. Kwin, developed by the KDE project, is used as the window manager.

It should be noted that the components of the Deepin desktop are developed using C/C++ (Qt5) and Go. A key feature is the taskbar, which supports multiple operating modes. In classic mode, there is a clearer separation between open windows and suggested applications to launch, displaying the system tray area. The efficient mode somewhat resembles Unity, mixing indicators of running programs, favorite applications, and controls (volume/brightness settings, connected storage devices, clock, network status, etc.). The application launcher interface is displayed full-screen and provides two modes—viewing favorite applications and navigating through the catalog of installed programs.
