Browser integration

Browser integration is a suite of features that make Firefox, Chrome and Chromium-based browsers work with your desktop:

  • Downloads appear in the notification popup, just like file transfers in Ecco.
  • The Media Controls widget can mute and skip videos and music playing in the browser.
  • Browser tabs can be opened directly from KRunner, with the Alt+Space shortcut.
  • If you have KDE Connect installed, you can send a link to your phone. It isn't part of SonicDE.

To enable browser integration, add the extension from your browser's add-on store.

How to install

Before installing the browser extension, you need the part that runs on your computer, the sonic-browser-integration package. The package name may differ between distributions.

Then install the extension like any other. It's called Plasma Integration, because it's the same extension KDE publishes for its desktop:
