The Common Desktop Environment (CDE) is a desktop environment for Unix
and OpenVMS, based on the Motif widget toolkit. It was part of the UNIX
98 Workstation Product Standard, and was for a long time the Unix
desktop associated with commercial Unix workstations. It helped to
influence early implementations of successor projects such as KDE and
GNOME desktop environment, which largely replaced CDE following the turn
of the century.

After a long history as proprietary software, CDE was released as free
software on August 6, 2012, under the GNU Lesser General Public License,
version 2.0 or later. Since its release as free software, CDE has been
been ported to Linux, illumos and BSD derivatives.
