Archive:Build your first KDE application on Kubuntu
Under Construction
Building your first KDE application using Kubuntu Linux 20.04
Overview
This document aims to provide an overview on the pre-requisites required to create, compile and execute a simple KDE Application (windowed GUI application) using Kubuntu 20.04.
As most Linux distributions, including Kubuntu, do not install the necessary development packages - additional steps are required to get 'up and running' and be able to create a KDE Qt application.
Pre-requisites
It is assumed that a 'Minimal' installation is performed of Kubuntu, which is running. Refer to this guide on how to setup a Virtual Machine for development: https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development/Developing_in_a_virtual_machine
