+# Ayatana System Indicator &mdash; Display [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.com/AyatanaIndicators/ayatana-indicator-display.svg)](https://travis-ci.com/AyatanaIndicators/ayatana-indicator-display)
+
+## About Ayatana Indicators
+
+The Ayatana Indicators project is the continuation of Application
+Indicators and System Indicators, two technologies developed by Canonical
+Ltd. for the Unity7 desktop.
+
+Application Indicators are a GTK implementation of the StatusNotifierItem
+Specification (SNI) that was originally submitted to freedesktop.org by
+KDE.
+
+System Indicators are an extensions to the Application Indicators idea.
+System Indicators allow for far more widgets to be displayed in the
+indicator's menu.
+
+The Ayatana Indicators project is the new upstream for application
+indicators, system indicators and associated projects with a focus on
+making Ayatana Indicators a desktop agnostic technology.
+
+On GNU/Linux, Ayatana Indicators are currently available for desktop
+envinronments like MATE (used by default in [Ubuntu
+MATE](https://ubuntu-mate.com)), XFCE (used by default in
+[Xubuntu](https://bluesabre.org/2021/02/25/xubuntu-21-04-progress-update/),
+LXDE, and the Budgie Desktop).
+
+The Lomiri Operating Environment (UI of the Ubuntu Touch OS, formerly
+known as Unity8) uses Ayatana Indicators for rendering its notification
+area and the [UBports](https://ubports.com) project is a core contributor
+to the Ayatana Indicators project.

+
+## The Display Ayatana System Indicator
+
+The -display Ayatana System Indicator is the display menu indicator for
+Lomiri (Currently rotation-lock only, but we are planning to add further
+functionality for desktops, e.g. MATE, XFCE, LXDE). Its behavior and features will be listed at
+https://wiki.ayatana-indicators.org/AyatanaIndicatorDisplay
