Ubuntu Budgie 17.04 launched today as an official flavor of the popular Ubuntu Linux operating system as part of the Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) operating system release.

Until today, Ubuntu Budgie was known and distributed as budgie-remix, so this is its first official release as an Ubuntu flavor endorsed by Canonical. Because of this, the Ubuntu Budgie team had a lot of work on their hands during the past six months to remove everything related to the old budgie-remix name, as well as to make other necessary changes.

“A significant portion of this development cycle has been spent integrating with the Canonical build-system.
