What is COSMIC?

Computer Operating System Main Interface Components

COSMIC is the name for the main shell components in Pop_Shell (separate from the tiling and window-management components). It makes the following changes to the standard GNOME Shell environment:

  • Dock
  • Workspaces
  • Configuration options
  • Separated Workspaces overview from Applications.

Most components can be configured to fit the user's workflow and preferences, with two main presets for both keyboard-focused and mouse-focused navigation and use.
