Plasma Framework

The plasma framework provides the foundations that can be used to build a primary user interface, from graphical to logical components.

Introduction

The plasma framework provides the following:

  • A C++ library: libplasma
  • Script engines
  • QML components
  • The plasma-shell executable

libplasma

This C++ library provides:

  • rendering of SVG themes
  • loading of files from a certain filesystem structure: packages
  • data access through data engines
  • loading of the plugin structure of the workspace: containments and applets

See @ref libplasma.

Script engines

Provides support to create applets or containments in various scripting languages.

QML components

org.kde.plasma.core

Bindings for libplasma functionality, such as DataEngine and FrameSvg, see @ref core.

org.kde.plasma.components

Graphical components for common items such as buttons, lineedits, tabbars and so on. Compatible subset of the MeeGo components used on the N9, see @ref plasmacomponents.

org.kde.plasma.extras

Extra graphical components that extend org.kde.plasma.components but are not in the standard api, see @ref plasmaextracomponents.

plasma-shell

The plasma-shell executable loads the actual workspace. It is completely controlled by QML and does not itself provide any user interface.
