The release of the Ubuntu Sway Remix 25.04 distribution is now available, providing a pre-configured and ready-to-use desktop based on the mosaic composite manager Sway. This distribution is an unofficial edition of Ubuntu 24.10, created with both experienced GNU\/Linux users and beginners in mind, allowing them to try a mosaic window manager environment without long setup times. Builds for amd64 and arm64 (Raspberry Pi) architectures are prepared for download. <\/p>\n
The distribution environment is built on Sway \u2014 a composite manager that uses the Wayland protocol and is fully compatible with the tiling window manager i3, as well as the Waybar panel, PCManFM-GTK3 file manager, and utilities from the NWG-Shell project, such as the Azote desktop wallpaper manager, the full-screen application menu nwg-drawer, the program for displaying script output nwg-wrapper (used to show hotkey hints on the desktop), the GTK theme, cursor, and font configurator nwg-look, and the Autotiling script that automatically arranges the windows of open applications like dynamic tiling window managers. <\/p>\n
The distribution includes both graphical applications such as Firefox, Qutebrowser, Audacious, Transmission, Libreoffice, Pluma, and MATE Calc, as well as console applications and utilities like the Musikcube music player, MPV video player, Swayimg image viewer, Zathura PDF viewer, Neovim text editor, Ranger file manager, and others. <\/p>\n
Another feature of the distribution is the complete abandonment of the Snap package manager; all programs are provided as standard deb packages, including the Firefox web browser, for which the official PPA repository from the Mozilla Team is used. The installer of the distribution is based on the Calamares framework.
