== Introduction ==
This page will be used to provide information on how KDE can make use of the AppData specification, in order to integrate KDE applications into software-centers based on the AppStream Freedesktop specification.
 
Every software center that exists allows the user to look at screenshots and a long description of the application before it is installed. For most users it allows them to answer the question Do I want to install this application?
 
Traditionally in Linux distributions, we have none of this data for the vast majority of our desktop user-installable applications. To solve this, a new translatable data file was defined. Rather than create a new schema from scratch, a subset of the [http://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-AppStream-Metadata.html AppStream] metadata proposal is used.
