[edit] Introduction

The KDE Development Platform contains a number of KDE modules that form the foundation for all KDE Software.

If you are only interested in developing a KDE Application and not the KDE Development Platform itself then your distribution packages may be sufficient for these requirements, but Unstable development may require the latest Unstable versions to be built from source.

[edit] Required Steps

You need to have completed the following steps:

[edit] KDE Libraries

KDE Libraries (kdelibs) is the core library of the KDE Development Platform.

Project Page https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdelibs
Easy Repository git clone kde:kdelibs.git
Full Repository git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdelibs.git


KDE Libraries Build Requirements
Requirement Stable Requires Unstable Requires Devel Pkgs? Details
Shared desktop ontologies  ?? >= 0.6.50  ?? Support for the Nepomuk semantic desktop system.
This is needed if you intend to install kdepimlibs
Grantlee  ?? >= 0.1.0  ?? Grantlee is used for generating compilable code by the ModelEventLogger.
Without Grantlee, the logger will do nothing.
Aspell  ?? Spell checking support via Aspell.
HSpell  ?? Spell checking support for Hebrew.

[edit] KDE PIM Libraries

KDE PIM Libraries (kdepimlibs) is the PIM library of the KDE Development Platform.

Project Page https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdepimlibs

[edit] Kate

TODO: Does it belong here or Apps?

Kate is the text editor component for the KDE Development Platform.

Project Page https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdebase/kate
