From KDE UserBase Wiki

In the top part of the project view, expand the sub-tree for one project, let's say the one for which you want to run a particular Makefile target. This will give you icons for:

  • directories under this project
  • files in the top-level directory for this project
  • Makefile targets KDevelop can identify

These categories are shown in the picture below. Note that KDevelop understands Makefile syntax to a certain degree and therefore can offer you targets defined in this Makefile (though this understanding has its limits if targets are composed or implicit).
