yakuake

Quake-style terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology

YaKuake is inspired from the terminal in the Quake game: when you press a key (by default F12, but that can be changed) a terminal window slides down from the top of the screen. Press the key again, and the terminal slides back. It is faster than a keyboard shortcut because it is already loaded into memory and as such is very useful to anyone who frequently finds themselves switching in and out of terminal sessions.

Installing yakuake command is simple. just copy one of the above commands for your operating system and paste it into terminal. This command is available for Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Kali, Fedora and Raspbian operating systems. Once you run the command it will install the latest version of yakuake 2026 package in your OS.
