How is this different than running `sudo apt install [desktop-name]-desktop`? #70

Hi, I'm quite new to the Ubuntu world. I read the Ubuntu's guide to install a desktop over the server image. The commands for installing are very few comparing to desktopify's.

So I wonder what else does it do and why should I use desktopify over running just sudo apt install [desktop-name]-desktop?

Thanks!

desktopify writes some config to /boot/config.txt to ensure correct graphic quality, as well as doing some other little tweaks to ensure everything works well. It also has an option to have the first setup/welcome screen, which is a nice addition.
