Which desktop environment is considered to be Fedora's normal one?


Greetings,

What is considered to be Fedora's standard or flagship or normal or typical (I'm not sure exactly what to call it) desktop environment GUI? They have too many to choose from and was just interested in their "usual" (?) desktop.

Thanks

If you download vanilla Fedora right off the main page, you will end up with Gnome 3.

If you want to get a different default desktop, look into the spins page.

.... just curious, but, what is Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Cent OS's "defualt" desktop? I'm assuming it is the same... correct?

For RHEL/CentOS 7 it is Gnome Shell with activated Classic mode, so that it resembles more a Gnome 2 desktop.

RedHat finances Gnome3.14+. Fedora is a Red-Hat beta site for new software that RedHat wishes to implement. Therefore the answer is obvious.

And by the way, Fedora21+ will be workstation based, with Gnome as the major graphical interface.
