This release brings performance improvements in the shell, Drag-And-Drop in the overview, improved mouse and keybord accessibility, previews in the background panel, support for systemd user sessions, and more.

Improvements to core GNOME applications include new icons, sandboxed browsing in Web, gapless playback in Music, support for bidirectional text in the Terminal, more featured applications in Software, and more.

If you are interested in building applications for GNOME 3.34, you can use the GNOME 3.34 Flatpak SDK, which is available in the sdk.gnome.org repository.

This six-month effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the world: developers, designers, documentation writers, usability and accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, students, system administrators, companies, artists, testers and last, but not least,
our users.

GNOME would not exist without all of you. Thank you to everyone!

Our next release, GNOME 3.36, is planned for March 2020. Until then, enjoy GNOME 3.34!
