## Introduction
**Note**: These instructions are community maintained and are not supported by sway.
This page is intended to help you set up a fully-functional sway desktop environment integrated with GNOME under Debian 10/Ubuntu. Features that will be covered:
- GNOME integration, so that you can run GNOME apps and use GNOME settings to manage the network.
- Working notifications with `mako`.
- Nice application launcher and exit menu using `fzf` and `kitty`
- Taking of screenshots, optionally selecting a region, using `grim` and `slurp`
- Manual and automatic screen locking using `swayidle` and `swaylock`
- Volume control with multimedia keys
- Laptop screen brightness adjustment using `brightnessctl` and bound to keyboard keys
- Nice status bar using `Waybar`
These instruction were tested under Debian 10 (Buster), but should also work under Ubuntu with minimal modifications.
## Install sway
To do a basic install of sway under Debian 10, follow the instruction on the page [Debian-10-(Buster)-Installation](./Debian-10-(Buster)-Installation). They should also work with minimal modifications under Ubuntu.
