Available release Phosh 0.15.0, a desktop shell for mobile devices based on GNOME technologies and the GTK library. The environment was originally developed by Purism as an analogue of GNOME Shell for the Librem 5 smartphone, but then became part of the unofficial GNOME projects and is now also used in postmarketOS, Mobian, some firmware for Pine64 devices and the Fedora edition for smartphones.
