The overall goal is to provide a clean \u0026 powerful workflow without giving up usability enhancements that take advantage of modern hardware.\n\nIt's available in two flavours:\n\n![screenshot](./data/mac-ish-screenshot.png)\n---\n![screenshot](./data/unity-ish-screenshot.png)\n\n## How does it work ?\nEverything is done on top of [KDE neon](https://neon.kde.org/), it does not require any external dependency.\n\n![KDE neon](./data/neon-logo.png)\n\nIt works by providing pre-defined config files that were isolated from a fresh [KDE neon](https://neon.kde.org/) installation. It contains modifications all over KDE from little things aka not showing the [bouncing icon during the launch of applications](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31g0YE61PLQ) (\u003cimg src=\"./data/no-bouncing-cursor.gif\" width=\"48\" align=\"middle\"/\u003e) to changing some of the global shortcuts (described further below).\n\n## How do I get it ?\nYou can get it by simply running the line bellow in your terminal :point_down:\n```bash\ncd $(mktemp -d) \u0026\u0026 wget https://github.com/paulondc/kdeNeonDefaults/archive/master.zip -O kdeNeonDefaults.zip \u0026\u0026 unzip kdeNeonDefaults.zip \u0026\u0026 cd kdeNeonDefaults-master \u0026\u0026 ./setup\n```\n\u003e Be aware by running the setup it will override your current settings (you may want to create a backup of your current configuration for the directories  `~/.config, ~/.kde and ~/.local` beforehand).\n\n***Dialogue displayed during the setup***\n\n![setup](./data/setup-ui.png)\n\n---\n\n### Customized shortcuts:\n- open dolphin:  `super + e`\n- open konsole: `super + r`\n- minimize/restore all windows: `super + d`\n- close current window: `ctrl + w` or `alt + F4`\n- change to next virtual desktop: `alt + left`\n- change to previous virtual desktop: `alt + right`\n\nFor the next set of shortcuts I recommend you to put a [sticker on F8 key](./data/f8-sticker.png):\n![key](./data/kde-expose-key.jpg)\n\n- present all windows (expose): `F8`\n- show desktop grid (spaces): `ctrl + F8`\n- show desktop: `shift + F8`\n\n### Fine integrated/customized applications:\n- kwrite\n- dolphin\n- konsole\n- kdiff3\n- konversation\n\n## Licensing\nkdeNeonDefaults is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the MIT License.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpaulondc%2Fkdeneondefaults","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpaulondc%2Fkdeneondefaults","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpaulondc%2Fkdeneondefaults/lists"}
