Konqi is working the infrastructure!

KDE software is hosted on infrastructure managed by the KDE Sysadmins. If needed, a ticket can be opened on https://go.kde.org/systickets.

Identity Accounts

All accounts in the KDE infrastructure are synchronized in a unified system called KDE Identity which is free to use.

Version Control

Git
The KDE projects are mostly using Git. The repositories can be browsed online via our Invent (GitLab).
Find our guidelines and information about the GitHub mirror.
SVN
Some projects such as i18n (to localize the programs) or some websites still use SVN. The repository can be browsed on https://websvn.kde.org/. Some guidelines could be found here.
Commit access
Find out how to get commit access.

Content distribution

In order to distribute and spread the software and other data produced by the community, KDE uses mainly two distribution networks.

Code quality

Before pushing code to the repositories, the community has to review it.

Reviews
The current used system is GitLab. Before May 2020, KDE used Phabricator, and before 2015, KDE used Review Board.
Project Management
Projects are still managed with Phabricator. This functionality will gradually be migrated to GitLab.
Continuous Building - Jenkins
To ensure high-quality, KDE software operates a continuous integration system, namely Jenkins.
English Breakfast Network - Static Analysis
Krazy - Code Analysis, Usage Tutorial
APIDOX - API Documentation Statistics
Sanitizer - DocBook Checker
Usability Checks

Community communication

- Matrix
- IRC
- Mailing Lists
- Jabber
