Tyde is a full desktop environment for Linux/Unix built with the Fyne GUI toolkit in Go, following a material design aesthetic. It includes a window manager and can be installed as a selectable session in login managers like LightDM.

Use cases

  • run a lightweight Go-based desktop environment on Linux
  • replace my current desktop environment with a Fyne-based one
  • try a material design desktop on Unix
  • develop or customize my own desktop environment in Go
  • test a window manager in an embedded X window
  • set up a simple desktop session with LightDM

When to choose

  • you want a simple, easy-to-develop desktop environment written in Go
  • you like the Fyne toolkit's look and want it as your desktop
  • you want a single-binary desktop that is easy to install and extend

When to avoid

  • you need a mature, feature-complete desktop like GNOME or KDE
  • you rely on Wayland rather than X11
  • you don't want to install external tools like arandr or connman-gtk for full functionality
