The KDE community has charted its course for the coming years, focusing on three interconnected paths that converge on a single point: community. These paths aim to improve user experience, support developers, and foster community growth.

Python to me is much easier to write than C++, so I very much welcome this goal. Thank you

Not an expert programmer whatsoever, and it's been more than 15 years I've used Python for doing something GUI related (it was Python 2 and GTK+2...), but I do know you can do KDE stuff with Python right now. For example, there are Kirigami bindings for Python you can use to do a desktop/mobile app.

Still though I absolutely agree getting into C++ is a nightmare, to me is just a level behind Assembly and Brainfuck. I'd like to learn Rust and it'd be great to be able to contribute to KDE with it.

A small correction:

For example, there are Kirigami bindings for Python you can use to do a desktop/mobile app.

Kirigami is QML all the way, it doesn't need bindings since you'd be writing in QML either way. The Python part is about the actual business logic. :)

You're right, thank you
