KDE Applications 14.12 was just released today with new features and fixes to more than one hundred KDE applications.

KDE Applications 14.12 features some early applications ported to KDE Frameworks 5 and Qt5, but the vast majority of them are still dependent on the KDE Development Platform 4.

Today's release offers the first KDE Frameworks 5 versions of Kate, KWrite, Konsole, Gwenview, KAlgebra, Kanagram, KHangman, Kig, Parley, Kapptemplate, and Oketa. Some new libraries are also ready for use in a KF5 world. The Libkface library was also added as a new library to this release providing face detection and facial recognition.

Other improvements in KDE Applications 14.12 include KAlgebra having an Android version, KAlgebra can now print 3D graphs, KGeography has a new map for Bihar, and Okular and Umbrello have various improvements.

More details on KDE Applications 14.12 can be found by today's announcement at dot.kde.org.
