VUE is based on the Motif widget toolkit and targets the X Window System.
VUE is a precursor to Common Desktop Environment (CDE), which was also based on Motif.
History
Work began on VUE in 1988 at Apollo Computer for use with Domain/OS, as an alternative to Apollo's standard DM and wmgr.
Shortly later, HP acquired Apollo, where they released the first version of VUE for Domain/OS, and then went on to modify VUE for use with HP-UX.
- VUE 1.0 – Released with Domain/OS SR10.4
- VUE 1.1
- VUE 2.0 – Released for HP-UX
- VUE 2.0.1
- VUE 3.0 – Released with HP-UX 9.0 in 1992
According to an article published in the Hewlett-Packard Journal, the look and feel of HP-VUE was used when developing the Common Desktop Environment (CDE):<ref name="vue-migration">Template:Cite journal</ref>
After its release, HP endorsed CDE as the new standard desktop for Unix, and provided documentation and software for migrating VUE customizations to CDE.<ref name="vue-migration" />
