For years, KDE users had to use Virtual Machine Managers outside the KDE ecosystem, like GNOME Boxes. Now that's changing with a new native VMM in development for KDE.
Currently, Karton is actively developed by Derek Lin, a University of Waterloo student participating in Google Summer of Code 2025. His primary aim is to deliver a virtual machine manager that truly belongs in the KDE ecosystem.
Neat, but celebrating this as “finally getting” seems premature at best.
Devin has previously delivered what he says he’s gonna do, so I’m certain this is on it’s way. Might take longer than the Summer Of Code runs for, but it will get there.
