Plasma 5 Menus kde launcher menu plasma plasmoid
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): https://gitlab.com/jnuutinen/minimal-menu
A minimal application launcher, inspired by Elementary's Wingpanel.
Forked from Simple Menu.
There are no system icons (Logout, reboot etc), so it's recommended to use the User Switcher plasmoid (or similar) alongside Minimal Menu.
If you need system icons or application categories in your menu, consider using Simple menu (https://github.com/KDE/plasma-simplemenu).

Installation:
Download and install using Plasma Add-On Installer:
Add Widgets... -> Get new widgets -> Download New Plasma Widgets
Then search for "Minimal Menu" and click install. Minimal Menu should then appear in your installed widgets.
Alternatively download minimalmenu-[version].plasmoid from https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1275285/, and extract it (it's a zip file) to $HOME/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.gitlab.jnuutinen.minimalmenu.
Known issues:
Application hiding:
After selecting "Hide application" from an application's context menu, it will remain visible. A workaround is to select "Edit application..." from the context menu for any application after selecting "Hide application" for all the applications you want to hide. Then in the dialog that opens just click "Ok", and that should refresh the applications, and hide all applications that were marked for hiding.
Custom icon:
Custom icons are rendered in awful quality.
