Joshua Strobl of the Budgie Desktop team announced today the release of Budgie 10.6 as the latest stable version of this open-source, free, modern, and lightweight desktop environment for GNU/Linux distributions.

Budgie 10.6 is here two months after version 10.5.3 and introduces improvements to application grouping, improvements to single-instance application tracking, better support for some KDE applications, as well as a revamped notification system that’s now standalone and is no longer part of the Raven notification center, paving the way for new features like support for notification badges in the icon tasklist.

In addition, Budgie 10.6 adds various refinements to the internal theme and panel, such as border radiuses on most dialogs, the Raven widgets, and the Panel popover content, unified color scheme for widgets within the panel, better support for GTK themes, improved readability, more precise battery levels icons, Clock applet improvements, as well as updated default panel configuration.
