What systems do digitalocean support?

Posted March 1, 2018
Getting Started Applications Deployment

So, the title says it all. As I didn’t find anything on digitalocean related to what systems are to select and to see it I need to put $5… What systems are there? I would like or windows or ubuntu(desktop ubuntu, not ubuntu server) because I would need to install some applications that are only avaiable in windows and ubuntu desktop. So… What systems do you support?

Desktop environments are not included in the droplet choices, however that does not mean you cannot configure and use one.

Here is a great guide setting up tightvncserver and xfce on Ubuntu. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-vnc-on-ubuntu-16-04

Sorry no windows options.

Be aware that running a desktop environment will increase the load on your server.
