GNOME in Linux stands for GNU Network Object Model Environment. It is a graphical user interface (GUI) and a set of computer desktop applications for users of the Linux operating system. GNOME is intended to make the Linux operating system easy to use for non-programmers and generally corresponds to the Windows desktop interface and its most common set of applications. It allows the user to select one of several desktop appearances, such as making it look like Windows or Mac OS. GNOME comes with an object request broker (ORB) supporting the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) so that GNOME programs and programs from other operating system platforms in a network will be able to interoperate. It also includes a widget library that programmers can use to develop applications that use the GNOME user interface.
GNOME is a popular free and open-source desktop environment used in major Linux operating systems like Ubuntu, Pop!_OS, Fedora, and others. It provides a clean and polished UI, combined with loads of productivity features, making it one of the best desktop environments for Linux users. GNOME is designed to be simple and easy to use, providing a focused working environment that helps users get things done efficiently. It is developed openly and ethically by both individual contributors and corporate partners, and is distributed under the GNU General Public License.
