Plasmoids
Plasmoids that use the QML 2.0 declarative language to describe their user interface while having the logic of the applet, in JavaScript.
This is now the recommended method of creating plasmoids, where possible. The plasmoid, or applet serves as the visualization for the data which a Plasma::DataEngine contains.
It allows easily the declaring of an interface and to easily create things like ListViews with native Plasma theming. It is what Plasma is leaning the most towards, especially in the Mobile, MediaCenter shells.
- Getting Started
- Creating and running your first plasmoid in QML 2.0
- Basic List Plasmoid
- Make a QML 2.0 ListView which displays basic text objects as items. Utilizes native Plasma theming and animations.
- API Reference
- The QML 2.0 Plasmoid API. Useful for referencing what is available in the runtime, and in the provided Plasma imports.

Applet provides
applets can say in their metadata desktop file what features they provide: this is use to build an UI to switch an applet at runtime with other applet that provide the same feature. see List of known Provides
