me the highlight was the BOF session on Kirigami, in which some nice plans, together the VDG are starting to form.<br \/>\nKirigami in a QML based UI framework at the core of some KDE applications, which will become more and more central as more and more QML based applications are made.<br \/>\nSo far is still a relatively unknown gem in the KE software and frameworks offering, however as technologically is starting to mature, we&#8217;ll start to advertise it more and simplify onboarding.<br \/>\nA big part of that will be about web presence and documentation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A nice media-heavy introductory website which will showcase the features it can offer to your app, together expanded sections of the central Kirigami UX patterns in the new <a href=\"https:\/\/hig.kde.org\/\">Human Interface Guidelines<\/a> website.<\/li>\n<li>Improving the API documentation<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/telegram.me\/joinchat\/BbOuVj6l7b5aZ_WbupyFFw\">Kirigami channel on Telegram<\/a> will need IRC and Matrix bridges<\/li>\n<li>A series of tutorials how to get started developing applications using the Kirigami toolkit<\/li>\n<li>Repurpose the example &#8220;Kirigami Gallery&#8221; application: It will become a showcase of components and UI patterns the developer is recommended to use: each gallery page will also have documentation text together links to the corresponding HIG page and to the gallery page sourcecode itself, to be used as a source of inpiration and best practiches to be used while developing your application<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_6621\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
