KDUtils is a library which provides both helpers and wrappers around the C++ STL and a base for cross-platform applications, similar to QtCore.

Also check out KDBindings for an implementation of properties, signals, and slots. Used heavily in KDUtils.

The KDFoundation namespace provides an event loop, an EventReceiver abstract class, and an Object type which is an event receiver that can have a parent Object and any number of children.

On top of that, you get:

• Event
• FileDescriptorNotifier
• Timer
• EventQueue: a thread-safe stack of events
• Postman: a way of passing events down a series of receivers
• CoreApplication: a class that connects the EventQueue, Postman, and event loop.

KDGui provides a cross-platform windowing solution, built on top of the CoreApplication.

You get:

• Window
• Keyboard and mouse events
• GuiApplication

This namespace is the namesake of the entire library, and contains the STL wrappers and helpers.

You get:

• ByteArray
• Dir
• File
• ElapsedTimer
• Flags
• Url
• Logging factory helper

On Linux:

sudo apt install libxkbcommon-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev wayland-scanner++ wayland-protocols libwayland-dev

For debug builds with code coverage:

sudo apt install gcovr
