How to start an application from a KWin script?
I am trying to replicate https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp as a KWin script. Since I decided to use Wayland instead of X11, where jumpapp does not work.

You're using function keys wrong
Maybe checkout https://vickychijwani.me/blazing-fast-application-switching-.... Personally I use jumpapp which does more or less the same thing. https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp.

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!
jumpapp - its a run-or-raise app. Basically, you set up a shortcut for something that you use often (an IDE, a browser, a terminal etc). Once you activate the shortcut, jumpapp will either run the app if its running, or start the app if it isn't.

What's your favorite feature you implemented on your keymap? (can be anything!)
This may be off-topic, but would you mind sharing your AutoHotKey script? I'm used to Jumpapp on Linux, but I was never able to recreate the same behavior on Windows.

Beginner!
You might want to at least use a code editor with syntax highlighting so that it gets a little easier to read the code. Personally I use Geany but there are many other ones you can use.
