KDE Gear

The KDE Gear is a set of applications and supporting libraries that are developed by the KDE community, primarily used on Linux-based operating systems but mostly multiplatform, and released on a common release schedule.

Extragear
Software that is not part of the official KDE Applications bundle can be found in the "Extragear" section. They release on their own schedule and feature their own versioning numbers. There are many standalone applications like Krita or Amarok that are mostly designed to be portable between operating systems and deployable independent of a particular workspace or desktop environment. Some brands consist of multiple applications, such as Calligra Office Suite. There are several options for obtaining and installing KDE applications under Linux. Moreover, most of the KDE platform and applications have been ported to OpenBSD and NetBSD. == List of applications part of the bundle ==

Development Software development KDE SDK is a collection of two dozen distinct integrated (both within the SDK but also with other KDE applications, e.g. many work with Dolphin, the default file manager) applications and components that work with/are part of KDevelop, and is suitable for general purpose software development in a range of languages. It provides the tooling used to engineer KDE, and is particularly rich in tools to support Qt and C++ development, as well as the more fashionable Rust, Python, etc. • Most of the KDE SDK is available for Windows and macOS in addition to Linux and BSD. • While created for the KDE desktop, prebuilt binary software , including nightly releases, is available for Mac OS, Linux (via AppImage, AppStream or Flathub, as well as Snap), as well as via most major Linux distributions package managers, in addition to the source code via KDE Gitlab. • Windows installers for production/released version of Kate, KDevelop are available as well as via the store. • Several KDE applications are available for Android using the Kirigami framework. built using KDevelop including KDE Connect, KDE Itinerary, a digital travel assistant that integrates train, bus, and air bookings with maps, the KDE Kalendar application, and boarding passes, and KAlgebra, a graphing scientific calculator. Various other packages are being built for testing on Android, although plans for some of the core parts of the SDK (e.g. Kate) have not been announced. • Unless noted, KDE applications can use KIO slaves for ftp, http, ftp over ssh (fish), Google drive, WebDAV to browse/access files just as they can local files, samba (Windows shared files), archives, man, and info pages. E.g. to browse a WebDAV location, in place of the file path, webdav://www.hostname.com/path/. • The various components can be used on their own (e.g. Kate as a general purpose text editor), or in combination (e.g. Kate uses KDiff3 internally to compare cached autorecovery file with the last saved version). • Kate – an advanced text editor for programmers, and general text editor. with a plug-in/extension framework (e.g. plug-ins for PHP, Ruby, Python, Markdown documentation authoring/preview, a SVG viewer, etc.), and control flow viewer. • Supported languages include: C/C++ and ObjC (backed by the Clang/LLVM libraries) • Including some extra features for the Qt Framework • Including language support for CUDA and OpenCL • Qt QML and JavaScript, Python, PHP • In addition to the "supported" languages, there is syntax highlighting for a wide range of mark-up, configuration, programming, scripting, and data languages. • GUI integration with multiple different version control systems including Git, Bazaar, Subversion, CVS, Mercurial (hg), and Perforce. • Support for CMake and QMake, as well as generic and custom build files. • Cervisia – CVS frontend • KDESvn – graphical Subversion client • KAppTemplate – Template-based code project generator • KDiff3 – Diff/Patch frontend (see Comparison of file comparison tools) • Kommander – Dynamic dialog editor • Kompare – Diff/Patch frontend • Lokalize – a computer–aided translation system • Okteta – a hex editorPoxmlSwappoClazy Qt-oriented static code analyzer based on the Clang framework • Massif Visualizer – Visualizer for Valgrind Massif data files • Umbrello – UML diagram application • ELF Dissector ELF binary inspector • Fielding REST API tester • Doxyqml Doxygen filter to allow generation of API Documentation for QML • Heaptrack traces all memory allocations and annotates these events with stack traces. • KDebugSettings • KUIViewer views UI files (e.g. from Qt Designer). • Dferry D-Bus library and tools • CuteHMI Open-source HMI (Human Machine Interface) software written in C++ and QML.

Releases
The KDE Applications Bundle is released every four months and has bugfix releases in each intervening month. A date-based version scheme is used, which is composed of the year and month. A third digit is used for bugfix releases. With the April 2021 release, the KDE Applications Bundle has been renamed to KDE Gear.'''''' ==See also==
