----------

## Introducing _**PocketDESK**_

What is _**PocketDESK**_?.

PocketDESK is a way to run the normal _Desktop GUI_ on your _PocketCHIP_ without any hassle.

_Does the keyboard work?_  **Yes sir**

_Does the touchscreen work?_  **Yes sir**

_Can i run this next to the normal PocketHome?_ **YES SIR**

The install is super simple.

Just run

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git

git clone https://github.com/AllGray/PocketDesk.git

sudo ./PocketDesk/PocketDESK.sh

That is it. Do a reboot and you are good to go.

----------

## How to use!

The point of **_PocketDESK_** is that you can switch between the normal **Desktop GUI** and **PocketHome**

To do this simply log out of whatever you booted into

**PocketHome:** (_See.. I put a button there for you'all_)

**Desktop:**

![Desktop_logout](https://github.com/AllGray/AllGray_Private/blob/master/gif/Desktop_logout.gif)

In the login manager you click and choose the desired **GUI** version:

If you run into any problems, feel free ask.
