LXDE on Cygwin is your "swiss knife" for remote computing. In a Window$$ application, it provides loads of functions that are tailored for HPC users, webmasters, IT administrators and pretty much all users who need to handle their remote jobs in a more simple way.
LXDE on Cygwin provides all the important remote network tools (SSH, PUTTY, X11, VNC, FTP,SFTP, MOSH, FILEZILLA ...) and Unix commands (bash, ls, cat, sed, grep, awk, rsync, python, git ...) to Windows desktop.
The program was created mainly as an alternative to MobaXterm with the original purpose of connecting Window$$ computers directly to HPC clusters, to use X11 apps and not only.
Of course you can use a beautiful LXDE desktop on your window PC and add Cygwin apps with apt-cyg command.
