Akademy is the annual world summit of KDE. It is a free, non-commercial event organized by the KDE Community. This year's Akademy was hosted at the TU Wien from the 11th to the 17th of August.

We would like to thank the organizers of the event for providing us with a great opportunity to meet, discuss and hack! Llegiu més

New Kirigami communication channels

Dimarts, 21 d'agost de 2018 | Marco Martin
Kirigami used to have a Telegram channel as its main communication channel. this is of course not optimal being a closed service and many potential contributors not having an account on Telegram.
Since today, we also have an IRC channel
#kde-kirigami on freenode and
#kirigami:matrix.org on Matrix
The Telegram channel is still there, and all 3 are bridged between each other, so a message sent by any of the 3 platforms will be received also by users on the other two.
See you there 🙂

Akademy 2018

Dilluns, 20 d'agost de 2018 | Marco Martin
The time for Akademy came this year as well, this year it was in the gorgeous Vienna, Austria.
This year marks my 10th Akademy in a row, starting from my first one in Belgium in 2008.
Talks have been awesome as usual, but what’s always awesome for me year by year is all the face to face conversation with so much diverse and smart people in out awesome KDE community.

Find your own way to help develop Plasma Mobile

The Plasma Mobile project was started by the KDE community with the goal of becoming a free, user-friendly, privacy-enabling and customizable platform for mobile devices. We are always on the look out for more contributors to help push Plasma Mobile forward. However contributions to Plasma Mobile has high entry barrier due to various reasons, among which are the lack of documentation and easily available open tasks for Plasma Mobile.

Proposed design for mobile network settings

Dilluns, 2 d'abril de 2018 | Martin Kacej

Design

While thinking of design, i looked on biggest “competitors” on mobile OS market – Android and iOS. Mainly i am taking design ideas from Android, since i am thinking it has good proportion between usability and functionality, while i am studying/following KDE Human Interface Guidelines, https://community.kde.org/KDE_Visual_Design_Group/HIG and as recommended i am using Kirigami 2 framework, which implement most of HIG rules by itself.
