KDE Applications Catalogue

Applications
Applications

The KDE community ships over a hundred applications for almost every need and interest. There are applications for viewing and editing images as well as organizing your photo collection. There are programs for playing videos and managing your music collection. There are also educational programs for students and teachers, as well as games to entertain you for hours. KDE's software compilation even comes with its own office and productivity suites!


And if that's not enough, there are literally hundreds of applications that are available from KDE-Apps.org for you to try out and use.

You may also find what you need in the table of equivalent applications.

The Desktop

These applications provide the core functionality of a basic Desktop, giving you the power to manage and customize your desktop to your liking. These are probably the most common programs you'll be using for day-to-day tasks.

Internet & Networking

No computer is an island these days. KDE presents some apps that let you receive and send data to other computers, whether it be on the Internet or on a local network, giving you access to the world.

Graphics & Imaging

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then hundreds of images would say millions. KDE provides programs that let you view and manage your images and photos, view different kinds of documents, as well as to create your own images.

Multimedia

Transform your desktop into a mini-media center. Play your music, watch your videos, manage your collections, or back them up on CDs and DVDs. Liven up your experience with KDE's multimedia selection.

Office & Productivity

Get organized with KDE software! With a standards-compliant office, productivity and groupware applications, as well as other useful tools, KDE software helps you take control not only of your computer, but your life and work as well.

Education

KDE software isn't only for the big guys and gals. Whether it be in between atoms, or across the globe, or even beyond the stars, our software helps strive for a brighter future with a whole bunch of educational applications for kids and students, as well as aids for teachers and parents.

Science

Plotting data, graphing, simulations and information systems - we have them all

System Administration

Be the king or queen of your own castle as KDE gives you the tools to be the master of your own computer. From system monitors to consoles to system settings, KDE lets you take control.

Utilities & Tools

KDE provides dozens of tools that add value to your desktop. They may not be big or sophisticated, but these utilities are a class of their own, providing convenience and power to your everyday computing.

Games & Toys

All work and no play makes for a stressful life. That's why KDE provides a variety of games to keep you entertained and even occupied for hours. Pick a card, avoid bouncing balls, or even conquer the world, all from the convenience of your computer. Be careful though, you might become addicted.

Development & Programming

A Free Software project such as the KDE Software Compilation wouldn't be complete without tools to create software. The rich software ecosystem includes applications to make programmer's lives a lot easier, from simple file comparison tools to a full-blown Integrated Development Environment.

Accessibility

The KDE community cares for its users, whatever age, gender, race, or physical condition. It provides tools, both built-in utilities and standalone applications that enable people with physical handicaps to still be able to use their computers easily and efficiently.

Simple Ways Of Dealing With Conflict

The Radical Linguist Noam Chomsky

For centuries experts held that every language is unique. Then one day in 1956, a young linguistics professor gave a legendary presentation at the Symposium on Information Theory at MIT. He argued that every intelligible sentence conforms not only to the rules of its particular language but to a universal grammar that encompasses all languages.
