Fedora Workstation comes with the GNOME desktop by default. GNOME brings their users a rich experience with a complete set of applications. This includes applications for music and video players, text editors, PDF viewers, and even a Weather and Maps apps. But for those looking for another desktop experience for their workstations, Fedora provides a large set of options to try out. Some are full desktop environments like Cinnamon and KDE Plasma, to minimal window managers like OpenBox, Fluxbox, and i3wm (often shortened to just i3).
