Install

Dependencies

  • The acer-wmi-battery driver is needed for the plasmoid to work.
  • One of the following tools is required for notifications to work. Note that in many distros at least one of the two is installed by default, check it out.
    • notify-send - a program to send desktop notifications.
    • zenity - display GTK+ dialogs.

From KDE Store

You can find it in your software center, in the subcategories Plasma Addons > Plasma Widgets.
Or you can download or install it directly from the KDE Store website.

Manually

  • Download/clone this repo.
  • Run from a terminal the command plasmapkg2 -i [widget folder name].

Disclaimer

I'm not a widget or KDE developer, I did this by looking at other widgets, using AI chatbots, consulting documentation, etc. So use it at your own risk. Any recommendations and contributions are welcome.
