We have it as a deb for Jessie if that would work.

MX-23 (based on Debian Stable) with our flagship Xfce 4.18.

There is also this Xubuntu Extras PPA.

Thank you, now I can install it. But I have another problem. I need to run it as daemon but it won't.
xfdashboard –daemon
(xfdashboard:3412): xfdashboard-plugin-hot_corner-WARNING **: Disabling hot-corner plugin because application is not running as daemon.
Thanks

Looks like the documentation is a little out of date.
To daemonize it, create a startup entry for the command "xfdashboard --daemonize". Then create a hotkey shortcut to launch "xfdashboard".
