On FreeBSD, a small experiment with xfce-desktop, starting WindowMaker as a WM, and GNUstep&GWorkspace app.
Built with the "tools-scripts" from the GNUstep github repo. Nice add-on :) @greg_casamento

@anthk Well, that is the job of a distribution. If you try to do that you are going to stumble about the issue that #GWorkspace and #PreferencesApp are not a complete DE. So you end up pulling in stuff from #MATE or start building #Nextspace.

@mos_8502 Thank you for your post! I really like #GNUstep and its concepts. The biggest challenge I see regarding you idea is the current state of GNUstep. It barely is the thin application layer #OpenStep / Yellow / Blue Box was meant to be, which later became Cocoa. Fixing it to work like intended already is a huge task. Making a desktop environment out of it (projects like #Nextspace or #GWorkspace try) are even bigger ones.

So, these screenshots show a #RaspberryPi running #GNUstep #GWorkspace with #GNUMail.app and #PikoPixel.app. They were shown and used using an iPad and I found those screenshots there again. Both apps are examples of the greatest portable GUI #ObjC apps out there.

Was der Langzeittest gibt, wird man sehen.
Mein Hacker-❤️ habe ich natürlich an #GNUstep verloren: Die super durchdachte und offene API (#OpenStep), .apps/Bundles, sinnvolle Integrationen, Objective C und #Gorm (http://www.aiei.ch/gnustep/), Spalten-Filemanager mit #GWorkspace.
Aber ich muss ja auch noch arbeiten… 😉
