About Deepin File Manager

Deepin File Manager (dde-file-manager) is the file management tool developed for the Deepin desktop environment. It is the program Deepin users see when they browse folders, open drives and manage files on their system.

The source is published on GitHub with a long commit history, translations and Debian packaging. It is built with CMake and is designed around the Deepin desktop, so it suits people running Deepin or a distribution that ships the DDE desktop rather than users of other desktops.

Strengths

  • Integrated with the Deepin desktop environment
  • Actively developed with a long commit history
  • Translated into many languages

Limitations

  • Designed for the Deepin desktop and less at home elsewhere
  • Linux only
