Cinnamon on Linux Mint 21.3

Overview

Cinnamon is a desktop environment maintained by the Linux Mint team. Forked from GNOME Shell, it provides the user with panels, menus, window management, hot corners, and more. The user-interface is written in JavaScript, with core libraries being written in C.

Features

Panel

Cinnamon provides a traditional desktop experience out-of-the-box, with a panel that resembles the taskbar of Microsoft Windows. Panel items — called "applets" — can be organized freely. Additional applets can be downloaded from the internet, either from the Spices website or the applet manager included with Cinnamon.

Spices

A "Spice" is Cinnamon's name for an add-on applet, desklet, theme, widget, and more. They can be found at the Cinnamon Spices repository website.
