Calculator desktop widget

The Kepo Calculator plugin is a local utility widget for everyday calculations without opening a separate calculator app.

Kepo desktop workspace for Calculator
A calculator widget is most useful when it is always close and instantly available.

Small calculations appear in the middle of real work: totals, estimates, ratios, counts, and quick checks.

Opening another app is not hard, but it is one more interruption.

Calculator keeps basic arithmetic inside Kepo.

A desktop calculator should be fast, local, and simple.
