In general, when we talk about office suites, LibreOffice, Microsoft Office or OpenOffice always come to mind. The first suite and the last one are the same for many users and the second one simply cannot be installed natively on Gnu / Linux.
But there are more office suites, free that can be installed on Gnu / Linux. One of them is Calligra, an office suite that has been recently updated. Thus, we already have Calligra 3 available for all equipment and main operating systems.
Calligra 3 will be characterized as a version that has updated its QT libraries to QT5, something practical for those who, in addition to using Calligra, also use Plasma or Krita, but above all because of the absences that the office suite has had with this version.
The most notorious of these absences is Krita. Krita is the graphic design program included in the suite. The project has matured a lot, in such a way that Krita's team has decided to become independent from the office suite.
Krita leaves the Calligra 3 suite but due to the success of the program
Along with Krita, Author and Brainstorm also leave, being replaced by functions of other programs such as Author or looking for alternatives that will be incorporated in future versions. Flow and Stage have also disappeared in this version, but the Calligra development team hope that these programs will be present again in future versions.
You will find the latest version of Calligra in the official repositories of your distribution, but if you don't want to wait, you can go to this page and download Calligra 3 by package, something quick and easy.
As you can see, Calligra 3 comes with great absences, but that does not make the version not worth it, on the contrary. And despite not having the same advertising as LibreOffice, the truth is that Calligra 3 is a great free option for our office needs, more now if you also use KDE Plasma as your main desktop.
