I didn't want to stay behind and I have made a Layout for our beloved Latte Dock, that amazing and very customizable Dock and TopBar that allows us to configure our desktop as we like, so this is my contribution and alternative to have a Windows 11 aesthetic in our preferred Linux distro, within our KDE desktop of course.
I hope this Windows 11 Layout is to your liking and very useful in your daily use, do not forget to give a vote if you liked it and leave your comment with a detailed description in case you experience any inconvenience with the Layout; in the description you will find the details of the KDE Widgets that you must install and a description of how to import the Layout from Latte Dock to use the Windows 11 Layout.
Thanks in advance for your support, enjoy the Windows 11 aesthetics on your KDE desktop!

> Installing Latte Dock
Thanks to the developer of Latte Dock now we don't need to install the git version because now the git version and the stable version are the same, so we can install the stable version from the repositories of each distro to have the latest Latte Dock.
But if you still want to install the Latte Dock Git version you can visit the Github repository and follow the steps to install it at INSTALLATION.md
But the recommendation is to install from the stable version from your distro's package repository since it is the same version.

> Importing Themes
To import the themes into Latte Dock you must run Latte Dock and then right click on any part of the Dock, then "Layouts" and "Manage Layouts", when the window opens look for "Import" click and Search where you have saved your downloaded theme file; now double click on the "In Menu" part, so you have access from the menu without opening the "Manage Layouts" window at any time, and that's all. Now you can enjoy any theme you like.

> Widgets or Plasmoids NEDDED!!
For Windows 11 Layout to work properly, you need to install these Widgets, Most KDE Widgets already come inside the KDE Desktop, so we will install very few widgets for this Layout.
So right click on Plasma desktop and go to "Add Widgets", then "Get New Widgets" and then "Dowload New Plasma Widgets" and search for the next Widgets:
List of Widgets from Center to right and Need to install
Center
- Menu 11
- Latte Sidebar
Right
- Weather Report
- System Tray
- Latte Sidebar
- Digital Clock
Left SideBar
- System Monitor Sensor
- Media Controller Plus
Right SideBar
- Notification
- Calendar WL
Need to install
- Latte Sidebar
- Menu 11
- Media Controller Plus
- Calendar WL
And that's it, now you can enjoy a desktop with the appearance of Windows 11 on KDE.
