Synopsis:
The purpose of this page is to collect a list of useful apps for the desktop user. It can be edited by everyone who wants to collaborate.

Foreword

This list is a partial list, it does not list all the software available in the official Mageia repositorys.

See Install and remove software for beginners or Installing and removing software for information how to install packages from Mageia repositories.

If you can not find what you need in Mageia

Can you use another program? - i.e Gimp instead of Photoshop, Okular instead of Acrobat Reader, LibreOffice instead of MS Office, etc.

The program you want may be available in another way. For methods see ways to install programs: You may find universally usable packages in Appimage or Flatpak format at the software developer site, use binary files, compile yourself, rebuild a .deb (Ubuntu/Debian) or use another distribution .rpm:

If you wish there were another package in the official repository: make a package request in Mageia Bugzilla, and consider participating in team Mageia packagers (see Packagers Team Portal), to help expand and maintain the official repository of Mageia packages.
