Several Desktop Environments also work with dCore. Although lacking dCore OnDemand menu integration, they provide auto-populated menus based on a loaded application's desktop file. They also typically provide customizable menus, panels and application launchers.The following Desktop Environments have official READMEs: | Several desktop environments also work with dCore.

Visit the [[dcore:screenshots|Official dCore Screenshots]] page to see them in action. | LXDE can be modified to use Openbox's OnDemand menu (see [[#Migrate from FLWM to LXDE|below]]), providing an equivalent to an officially supported window manager. |

LXDE notes: LXDE can be modified to use Openbox's OnDemand menu, see [[dcore:Migrating from FLWM to LXDE|Migrate from FLWM to LXDE]]. LXDE displays a popup error at boot, which delays desktop loading, on dCore-jessie and dCore-wily. This is an unresolved bug reported in the LXDE mailing list, not dCore specific. Alternatively import these for a similar LXDE experience: openbox, obconf, lxpanel or tint2 (nice built-in panel configuration GUI), leafpad, lxterminal and pcmanfm. This provides a modular setup with an integrated OnDemand menu. Right click [[dcore:desktop_applications#lxpanel|lxpanel crashing]] may be experienced. | |
