KDE celebrates its 30th anniversary by documenting its major contributions to tech. The project's KHTML web engine, created in 1998-1999, became the foundation for Apple's WebKit and Google's Blink, which now power most modern browsers including Safari, Chrome, Edge, and others. KDE software also assisted NASA's Opportunity Mars rover mission.
