Yes, it's based on Ubuntu, but it's not a remix. It's too different to be one:
- no Snap
- Flatpak instead
- Most standard Ubuntu apps missing
- In-house replacements for many Ubuntu standard components: their own browser, their own email client, their own calendar, their own media player, etc.
You can install the Pantheon desktop environment on standard Ubuntu.

P.S.
> would of adopted them
* would _have_ adopted. "Would've" is short for "would have" not "would of" which never ever occurs in English. This is a common error but it drives me crazy.
- giancarlostoro 4y agoEnglish surprisingly (to most) is a second language for me so apologies, I always seem to forget the little nuance. Also, I really just want their "Code" editor, but I don't want the headache of compiling it, I want it installed as a package, but its a pain to find it for me, not sure if I'm Googling incorrectly, but their editors name is not SEO friendly at all.
- lproven 4y agoOk then, you're forgiven. ;-) As for the editor, I guess you mean this? https://github.com/elementary/code https://github.com/elementary/code
- giancarlostoro 4y agoYep! That's the one, its really nicely done, I'm surprised no other distro has adopted it or pulled it into their package management. It's not an overtly complicated editor I don't think, looks to be using standard GTK components which is actually really nice.
