      Not currently available to download according to the official page:

      "As of right now, Plasma Bigscreen isn't available for public use yet. This is due to not being developed for so long. The project has been revived, but it might take a while until it becomes stable and is available for public use."

      That said, if this could run on top of the standard linux OS on my MiniPC (like Steam Big Picture), then I'd give it a go!

        Arch (and derivative) systems can install it through the AUR, but I do not know any distribution that offers it through their normal distribution channels (packages sources) already.

          Once installed, does it run as an application? I'm using Aurora, but it has DistroBox, and I'm almost certain that I'm able to get Arch programs installed through it.

            It is a DE, like regular KDE, GNOME etc. At your OS's login shell, you should be able to select it once installed. If it is the only desktop environment on that system, it will not even be needed to get selected as the appropriate session gets started when you login.
