Development

This page contains reference information useful for people writing KDE Software. There are plenty of other ways to contribute to KDE: see the Get Involved page on the Community wiki for a list of ideas.

Note that the Community wiki provides a place for KDE developers and other KDE community members to co-ordinate (including meeting notes and to-do lists). This section is for (relatively) stable documentation.
