From evolve-os.com:

  Budgie is the flagship desktop of the Evolve OS Linux Distribution, and is an Evolve OS project. Designed with the modern user in mind, it focuses on simplicity and elegance. Budgie desktop is not a fork of another project, but rather one written from scratch with integration in mind.

  The Budgie Desktop tightly integrates with the GNOME stack, employing underlying technologies to offer an alternative desktop experience. In the spirit of open source, the project is compatible with and available for other Linux distributions.

  Also note that Budgie can emulate the look and feel of the GNOME 2 desktop, optionally, via a setting in the panel preferences.

  At this time Budgie is heavily under development, and is hosted on GitHub. Contributions are always welcome, code, bug reports or otherwise!
