I use Arch and love KDE Plasma. It even has a blue light filter. Am never going back to Windows. KDE runs faster, looks nicer, does not have forced adware and telemetry. Great daily driver.
Nice, having a new alternative to virt-manager is great, especially a Qt one. Unfortunate it's using Kirigami and Qt Quick, I always felt the appearance and functionality is much worse compared to Qt Widgets.
Indeed, an alternative to virt-manager would be more than welcome. "What, you want to search the XML for a text string? Why would you want to do that? Undo? That's crazy talk!"
I had hoped KDE was over the K-named thing, but I guess not. At least Karton is better than Kvirt-manager.

I tried KDE 1.0 two decades ago. Although it looked like a copy of windows ideas in some points, it already seemed better even at the time.
What ever happened to aqemu? That was my favorite frontend but it seems to have been languishing for a decade.
Karton, sounds like "cartón" but with the traditional K added to the start of the names in KDE programs.
There's also Bottles: https://usebottles.com/

Plasma's shell is in Kirigami and Qt Quick, it couldn't be more consistent and integrated into the DE than that.

I think Qt Quick is a pretty generic level, you can make a lot of different interfaces with it. Kirigami is more specific.
Nice!
I've been using virt-manager for a long time, but more KDE native solution is welcome.
Still waiting for virt-manager to add support for Vulkan rendering through libvirt.
Side note, not sure if it's specific to Kirigami, but a bunch of interfaces which use it have this excessive margin spacing feel to them.
Something like that happens with print-manager's configuration which is using Kirigami supposedly too.
Karton, Dutch for 'cardboard'. Chosen because it is a tool to handle (virtual) boxes, maybe?
No need to contact the Dutch for this one - I assume it's just "carton" with the C replaced with K
Ah, but the Dutch can get there without indirection which means they're faster than those label-swapping Anglo- and Francophones.
French is not Germanic. It's a Romance language, so closer to Spanish, Italian, Portuguese etc
English, German and Dutch are Germanic.
I would have gone with a creative name like kvm.
Could be German as well.
English, Dutch and German are all ... Germanic.
English is the weird one, except for the others.
