From KDE Community Wiki
Konqi and the KDE community!

Welcome to the KDE Community Wiki! KDE is a world-wide community of software engineers, artists, writers, translators, and creators who are committed to the development and distribution of Free Software. If that sounds like you, you're in the right place!

This is a repository of information for community members and contributors about collaboration on projects and goals. Actual work takes place on https://invent.kde.org.

Cross-Project Teams

These teams work on areas common across lots of projects, sharing their expertise and working on tasks that individual projects often don't have the resources to manage on their own.

Projects

These are pages for specific KDE projects. Not every project or app has a page here; these are simply the ones that contributors found useful for information storage purposes. For a full list of KDE apps, see https://kde.org/apps.

Subcommunities

These are groups that come together based on shared experiences rather than because they are working on the same thing.
