Default applications
What’s the set of programs that the distro gives you from the get-go?
With a huge selection by default, Absolute breaks with the current trend of a minimal application set that the user then adds to.
Absolute Linux ships with applications that can handle practically every type of computing task. There’s no loyalty to a particular toolkit or desktop environment, and the selections are mostly lightweight choices. There are tools that can edit audio, video and graphics alongside programming tools and mainstream applications such as LibreOffice and GIMP.
