It could potentially replace the calendar that you get with KOrganizer. + +There have been a few beta releases already. But, with the 0.3.0 beta release, it looks like the Kalendar app might be gearing up to add essential features while heading to its v1.0 release. + +Furthermore, an exciting development follows—a Windows version is also available? + +Let us take a look at it. + +### Kalendar 0.3.0: What’s New? + +Kalendar 0.3.0 beta release is already out, and Claudio Cambra (KDE Developer) has shared the details of development progress in a blog post. Here, I mention the key highlights of the release. + +#### Performance Improvements + +![][1] + +KDE’s applications have always been known for their simplicity and performance. + +And, Kalendar is no exception. The latest beta release has been tweaked to make the application clean and simple. + +By default, you will not be shown week numbers when you are in the month view. Similarly, the tasks will be arranged in ascending order. + +These types of default configurations should save you time and simplify the user experience. + +#### Usability Improvements + +![][2] + +To make things easier, you can now drag and drop an event in the Kalendar app to resize or extend the time. + +The ability to edit an event has also been improved by letting you simply double-clicking on it to bring up the editor. + +It is now also easier to refresh the calendars using the F5 key. + +In addition to all these, Kalendar 0.3.0 also lets you quickly add time duration in a 15-minute multiple. + +#### Visual Improvements + +![][3] + +There aren’t any major visual changes, but the developers have worked on a few subtle differences. + +Some changes include highlighting the time when creating an event and adding new heading sections to improve the tasks’ clarity and categories. + +#### A Windows Version + +Even though the Kalendar app hasn’t been finalized, it is still good to have an open-source calendar app from KDE available on Windows. + +As per the developer’s blog, a Windows version was possible because of the flexibility of Qt, the KFrameworks, and Akonadi. + +If you are interested, you can [download the package for Windows][4], but it is still considered experimental. + +### Other Improvements + +Along with all the key highlights and an interesting Windows release, Kalendar 0.3.0 beta release also improves the keyboard navigation and other accessibility features. + +There are several bug fixes as well. You can explore all the technical details in the [blog post][5] by the KDE Developer. + +[Kalendar by KDE][6] + +_What do you think about the Kalendar app coming to Windows? Have you tried it on Linux yet?_ + +#### Big Tech Websites Get Millions in Revenue, It's FOSS Got You! + +If you like what we do here at It's FOSS, please consider making a donation to support our independent publication.
