Basically you can set up something (including a full app) as a <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/KPart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KPart</span></a> component and use it elsewhere as part of another (tools bars and menus will merge).</p><p>My understanding is that <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Kate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kate</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/KWrite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KWrite</span></a> are a good example. Both now use the same editor component, but Kate adds a LOT of extra functionality to it. The <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/KDEPIM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KDEPIM</span></a> suite uses the same trick with it's components - they can run separately or as one combined app (<a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/Kontact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kontact</span></a>).</p><p>I'm not fully across the technology, so if any experts wish to correct me, feel free. 🤠 </p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@eliasp" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>eliasp</span></a></span></p>

Carl Schwan :kde:<p>A nice side effect of the <a href="https://floss.social/tags/KDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KDE</span></a> PIM sprint is that there is now a migration paths from KNotes to Marknote. It will allow us to archive KNotes and all the infrastructure behind it while making sure that your don't loose your notes and can use a nice and maintained app instead.</p><p><a href="https://floss.social/tags/kdepim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kdepim</span></a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/marknote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>marknote</span></a></p>

Can't have everything I guess.</p><p>Before kmail, I used Thunderbird (for more than a decade, but I needed something which worked well with a HiDPI factor of 1.5 in the year 2016) and Evolution (tried it briefly, it broke my inbox by duplicating half my mail, never going to touch that ever again).</p>
