Latte Dock is a dock application for KDE Plasma desktops that displays tasks and plasmoids with a parabolic zoom animation effect. It is built on Plasma frameworks and Qt5, and is packaged across most Linux distributions and FreeBSD.

Use cases

  • replace the default Plasma panel with a macOS-style dock
  • add an animated dock with parabolic zoom to KDE Plasma
  • show tasks and plasmoids in an elegant dock on Linux
  • customize a dock bar with auto-hide behavior on Plasma
  • run a dock on X11 or Wayland Plasma sessions

When to choose

  • you use KDE Plasma 5.24+ and want a polished, animated dock
  • you want plasmoid support inside your dock
  • your distribution packages latte-dock and you want easy installation

When to avoid

  • you use GNOME, XFCE, or a non-Plasma desktop environment
  • you need a dock for Plasma 6 / Qt6, which this Qt5-based project does not target
  • you want actively developed new features rather than maintenance
