Plasma Active is a device-independant user experience for emerging devices such as tablet computers. Plasma Active is a holistic approach to deliv

workspace ("User Experience") specially designed for a range of devices. The first release of Plasma Active fully focuses on tablet computers.

Plasma Active runs on the proven Linux desktop stack, including the Linux kernel, Qt and KDE's Plasma Framework. The user interface is designed using Plasma Quick Quick, a declarative markup language allowing for organic user interface design basedon Qt Quick. Plasma Active uses existing Free desktop technology and brings it to a spectrum of devices through a device-specific user interface. Classical Plasma Widgets can be used on Plasma Active as well as newly created ones. The key driver for the development of Plasma Active is the user experience. Collaboration is made easy through high-level development tools and a well defined process.

The first release of Plasma Active fully focuses on tablet computers. Plasma Active Tablet's user experience is designed around the web, social networks and multimedia content.
