History (inspired by Wikipedia)
The KDevelop project started in 1998 at the University of Potsdam (Germany). The first released 0.1 was released the same year[1].
KDevelop has experienced several rewrites. The first time was with version 3.x by Bernd Gehrmann in 2001[2] and the second time was with version 4.x with a more object-oriented architecture in 2009[3].
The development of KDevelop 5 started in August 2014 as a port of the KDevelop 4 codebase for Qt5 and KF5[4]. The custom C++ parser was abandoned in favor of clang, and the CMake interpreter was also replaced in favor of using the JSON metadata given by CMake. KDevelop 5 was released in August 2016[5].
