that will eventually be able to replace GNOME-based tools like virt-manager and GNOME Boxes. It will be written using Qt Quick and Kirigami. Justin made a Matrix room for it at #karton:kde.org. So far we have a working VNC widget for Kirigami based on KRDC's code, and a minimal (and very rudimentary and not-yet-published) proof-of-concept for using this widget to connect to libvirt VMs. Most of our progress is at https://invent.kde.org/arraybolt/qml-vnc, which is a simple app that wraps the VNC widget and allows it to be tested.

As the CMake code was mostly taken from KRDC (which doesn't have license headers in its CMake code and therefore I believe defaults to BSD-2-Clause), the GPL code of plasma-welcome's CMake files prohibited inclusion of CMake code from there. I wanted to look at it in order to see what packages and libraries I needed in order to get localization-related features to be available in QML. I could just look at the code from some other project for that (and may end up doing so), but I thought this was something good to mention anyway.


Sounds like an exciting project!
