For those interested in the virtual Akademy 2020 there is the conference site . But even with this virtual KDE developer meet-up all week, a lot of development work progressed.
KDE developer Nate Graham is out with his usual weekly development recap highlighting:
- KDE has launched a developer website at develop.kde.org to help developers get involved and creating applications that jive well with KDE Plasma.
- KDE Plasma now allows setting a lower charge limit than 100% for batteries allowing this capability.
- The text view in Kate, KDevelop, and other KTextEditor-using programs will now respect the system wide color sceheme.
- "Large and complicated" QML apps should see much better speed and responsiveness with KDE Frameworks 5.75. This speed-up was made by changing the DBus connection handling.
- Many bug fixes to Konsole, Dolphin, and other KDE programs.
