To use Alpine Linux as a Desktop, a desktop environment needs to be installed. The desktops environments that can be installeed in a Quickstart mode currently using Setup-desktop utility are listed.
The Alpine Linux script for quickly setting up a desktop is:
# setup-desktop
On running the above command, you will be prompted to select a desktop environment.
Which desktop environment? ('gnome', 'plasma', 'xfce', 'mate', 'sway', 'lxqt' or 'none') [none]
Once you have chosen a desktop environment, this script installs the chosen desktop along with necessary packages, firefox browser and adds necessary services to run on startup. You can reboot when complete, and the system will boot into a graphical login screen with the chosen desktop environment. To view the packages installed by the script: $ cat /usr/sbin/setup-desktop
