LXQt is the Qt port and the upcoming version of LXDE, the Lightweight Desktop
Environment. It is the product of the merge between the LXDE-Qt and the
Razor-qt projects: A lightweight, modular, blazing-fast and user-friendly
desktop environment. LXQt 0.7.0 brings you a fast and stable desktop
environment, already usable in production desktop machines. It will not get
in your way. It will not hang or slow down your system. It is focused on
being a Classic Desktop with a modern Look Feel. Already available on most
mainstream distributions and with partial FreeBSD support. This is exactly
what I've been wanting in this department: a straightforward, no-nonsense Qt
desktop environment that doesn't shove touch nonsense in my face and, doesn't
try to impose upon me a very specific way of working, and doesn't try to be
everything to all people at all times.
