GNOME (/ɡəˈnoʊm/, /ˈnoʊm/)[6][7][8] originally an acronym for GNU Network Object Model Environment,[9] is a free and open-source desktop environment for Linux and other Unix-like[10] operating systems.

Many major Linux distributions, including Debian, Fedora Linux, Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and SUSE Linux Enterprise distribute GNOME as their default desktop environment; it is also the default in Oracle Solaris, a Unix operating system.

GNOME is developed by the GNOME Project, which is composed of both volunteers and paid contributors, the largest corporate contributor being Red Hat.[11][12][13] It is an international project that aims to develop frameworks for software development, to program end-user applications based on these frameworks, and to coordinate efforts for the internationalization, localization, and accessibility of that software.

In 2023/2024, GNOME received over 1 million Euros from Germany's Sovereign Tech Fund.[14]
