# Shift
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A fork of KDE Plasma Mobile that adds a desktop-class convergence mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Plasma Mobile is a phone shell. It doesn't try to be anything else.
|
||||||
|
Shift picks up where it leaves off: when you connect a monitor, keyboard,
|
||||||
|
or mouse, the same device should feel like a desktop. No second OS, no
|
||||||
|
separate session — one shell that adapts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What's different from upstream
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The upstream `plasma-mobile` repo provides the phone experience: homescreens,
|
||||||
|
a swipe-based navigation panel, an action drawer, and a status bar. All of
|
||||||
|
that still works. Shift adds a **convergence mode** layer on top — toggled
|
||||||
|
via `plasmamobilerc` — that swaps in desktop-oriented behaviour without
|
||||||
|
replacing the phone UI underneath.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Key changes so far:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Unified dock** replacing the navigation panel in convergence mode,
|
||||||
|
with running-app indicators, favourites, context menus, and hover
|
||||||
|
tooltips.
|
||||||
|
- **App drawer** opening as a centered popup instead of a full-screen
|
||||||
|
swipe.
|
||||||
|
- **Window management** — edge tiling, screen-edge maximize, close
|
||||||
|
buttons, task context menus, Overview integration.
|
||||||
|
- **Status bar** gains a system tray, date display, and hover highlights.
|
||||||
|
- **Screen space reservation** for the dock via a layer-shell exclusive
|
||||||
|
zone, so maximized windows don't overlap it.
|
||||||
|
- **Desktop niceties** — right-click wallpaper settings, minimize-all on
|
||||||
|
home press, clickable page indicators, action drawer toggle on click.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Upstream base
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Forked from `plasma-mobile` at KDE's Plasma 6 branch. Upstream commits
|
||||||
|
(translations, silent fixes) are preserved in the early history.
