Developer Resources

SVN

• For some instructions on the basics of SVN and how to use SVN for the KDE modules, please see this mini-SVN HOWTO.
• Creating and maintaining your webpage project on edu.kde.org: please read carefully this README for precise instructions on how to do that.

KDE TechBase

The KDE TechBase is the main source for development articles, tutorials, and development resources for both KDE 3 and KDE 4. So consider taking a look there first when looking for any development resource.
