As promised, today the KDE Project was pleased to announce the release of the Beta milestone of the upcoming KDE Plasma 5.10 desktop environment for GNU/Linux operating systems.

The enablement of Folder View as the default desktop in KDE Plasma 5.10 is something that most KDE fans know from early March, but it's finally here with its spring loading functionality (see the GIF below to see it in action), space-saving icon grid, better mouse behavior, redesigned rename interface, unified drop menu.

The Folder View also saw massive performance improvements, and it looks like it now lets users resize widgets in the desktop just by dragging on their edges and moving them with Alt+left-click. But there are many other enhancements like better back button history, clickable location in the headings, and Undo shortcut support.
