<p>By becoming a developer in the KDE community, you can make a big difference while enjoying a challenging and fun experience. You'll learn to be a better coder, you will get to implement new features and defeat daunting bugs, creating a stunning product, all the while collaborating with people from all around the world.

This is awesome about SoK:Provides exposure to open source development and getting acquainted with people of common interest.
[[getinvolved/translation|Translation]]</h2>
<p>Are you fluent in multiple languages? By contributing your translations of text to the KDE software, you will help KDE be a better part of the global market and more accessible to the millions of potential users out there.
This is what I learned during SoK:Its just the beginning

<p>Are you able to create images that move people? The KDE community is always in need of good art and even more so: good artists. Working with such an international team of volunteers over the web will certainly be a challenge, but a rewarding one. Icons, splash screens and themes create an identity for an application. By creating art for the KDE community, your portfolio will be seen by a large audience and will help KDE products have a strong branding - making a real, tangible difference.

<p>There's lots of people using and testing KDE software. By providing useful and up-to-date documentation, you will make a big impact on helping people understand how to make the most of KDE SC.

<p>Do you know how to get the word out on the street? Marketing and promotion of KDE is done through a mostly grassroots effort.

You'll be part of a flexible and interesting team of people who are moving the world!

Our team keeps track of incoming bugs in KDE software, and goes through old bugs. We verify that a bug exists, and is reproducible, and that the reporter has given enough information. Coding skills are not required to participate, however experience has shown us that our team members often learn so much and have so much fun we often lose them at some point to the ranks of the developer teams...
