What apps do you need? Do you have a list for it? I have some recommendations. ======================================================= music player: qmmp + simple ui plugin (very similar to audacious) or clementine (amarok like) text editor: juffed system monitor: qps (replaces lxtask) terminal: qterminal clipboard manager: qlipper compositing manager: compton irc: quassel web browser: firefox is still better, Arora is a Qt alternative but it crashes frequently calculator: I haven't found a simple yet good one file archiver: I haven't found a simple yet good one (peazip works, but its UI is weird) image viewer: lximage-qt screenshot tool: lximage-qt can does it :-) volume mixer: qastools (for alsa) system admin tools: lxqt-admin (replaces gnome-system-tools), this is a work in progress and will be available soon.
