Openbox is a free, stacking window manager for the X Window System, licensed under the GNU General Public License.[5] Originally derived from Blackbox[5] 0.65.0 (a C++ project), Openbox has been completely re-written in the C programming language and since version 3.0 is no longer based upon any code from Blackbox.[6] Since at least 2010, it has been considered feature complete, bug free and a completed project. Occasional maintenance is done to keep it working, but only if needed.[7]

Openbox is designed to be small, fast, and fully compliant with the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM) and Extended Window Manager Hints (EWMH).[8] It supports many features such as menus by which the user can control applications or which display various dynamic information.[5]

Openbox is the standard window manager in LXDE, and often set as the default for LXQt. It is used in Linux distributions such as BunsenLabs, ArchBang, Lubuntu, Trisquel and Manjaro.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]

The creator and primary author of Openbox is Dana Jansens of Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.[1][17]
