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 the working area for community members and contributors. It contains information about collaboration on projects and goals.

This wiki contains guides for getting involved with the community, making a living contributing to KDE, setting up a development environment for building KDE software, reporting bugs, translating software, and getting in touch with different KDE projects and teams.

If you're interested in how to use KDE Frameworks and libraries in your own software, take a peek at the KDE Developer Platform for guides and tutorials.

Community Information Hub

Get started learning about and contributing to KDE with some basic information found at these links:

Community Management and Coordination

These teams help keep the KDE community running smoothly by providing support, administration, and arbitration:


Things to deal with:

  • KDE.org Websites
    • KDE Forums - Information about discuss.kde.org for developers and contributors
    • KDE Student Programs - Functional guide of season.kde.org for students, mentors, and admins
  • KDE — Various documentation affecting the entire community

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 projects. These can be pieces or collections of software, specific websites, or other relatively self-contained areas of work.

Subcommunities

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