10 Necessary Ubuntu Apps For Everyone [Part 3]
|
||||
======
|
||||
This article lists the top 10 necessary Ubuntu apps for your daily workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
We often forget that thousands of free and open-source applications can compete with other commercial counterparts in their category. Moreover, if you are a Windows user and thinking about getting rid of Windows completely, you should also be aware of such apps beforehand.
|
||||
|
||||
Hence, in this article series of “necessary Ubuntu apps”, we are featuring ten apps for much-needed awareness among Linux users.
|
||||
|
||||
This is part 3 of this Ubuntu Apps series. If you missed the earlier parts, you can read them here, Or navigate from the Menu above.
|
||||

||||

### Best Ubuntu Apps in 2022 – Part 3
|
||||
|
||||
#### Guake
|
||||
|
||||
Ever wanted to quickly open a terminal with a quick keyboard shortcut while you are middle of a vital workflow? This Top-Down terminal app Guake helps you to do that. If you are busy working on an essay, editing a video, debugging a code in your favourite code editor and want to quickly check something in the terminal and then go back to work – Guake can help you do that. Just press F12 and a terminal will pop up, and press F12 again, and it will go away—no need to launch/close a separate terminal instance.
|
||||
|
||||
![Guake Running in Ubuntu][3]

I think it is one of the necessary Ubuntu apps everyone should try.
