Due to Popular Request, KDE Neon Is Adopting the Calamares Graphical Installer

Indeed, Calamares is a popular installer framework that’s being successfully used by many distros, including Chakra, Netrunner, and KaOS. Today it’s also coming to KDE Neon, for the first time, replacing the Ubiquity installer developed by Canonical for the Ubuntu operating system, on which KDE Neon is based. As you can see from the screenshot gallery at the end of the article, it already looks gorgeous on the Developer Unstable edition.
