Initially, you may notice many similarities between Ubuntu and other operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows or Mac \acronym{OS~X}. This is because they are all based on the concept of a graphical user interface (\gls{GUI})\dash \ie, you use your mouse to navigate the desktop, open applications, move files, and perform most other tasks. In short, things are visually-oriented. This chapter is designed to help you become familiar with various applications and menus in Ubuntu so that you become confident in using the Ubuntu \acronym{GUI}.

\marginnote{To read more about other variants of Ubuntu, refer to \chaplink{ch:learning-more}.} In Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu), a number of desktop environments are available. Ubuntu uses \application{Unity} as the default desktop environment. After installing and logging in to Ubuntu, you will see the Unity desktop. This initial view is comprised of the desktop background and two bars\dash a horizontal one located at the top of your desktop called the \emph{menu bar} and a vertically-oriented bar at the far left called the \emph{Launcher}.
