Installazione dei pacchetti binari

In Linux, l'uso di pacchetti per la tua distribuzione preferita è il metodo raccomandato per avere accesso a KDE Frameworks. Pagina wiki per scaricare il software KDE per la tua distribuzione Linux.

Compilazione da sorgente

Il codice sorgente completo di KDE Frameworks 5.7.0 può essere scaricato liberamente. Le istruzioni sulla compilazione e l'installazione sono disponibili nella pagina informativa di KDE Frameworks 5.7.0.

La compilazione da sorgente è possibile tramite i comandi di base cmake .; make; make install. Per un framework di solo livello 1, questo è spesso la soluzione più semplice. Le persone interessate a collaborare a Frameworks o a tenere traccia dei progressi dell'intero set sono invitate a usare kdesrc-build. Frameworks 5.7.0 richiede Qt .

Un elenco dettagliato di tutti i componenti di Frameworks con la documentazione delle API si trova in api.kde.org.

Partecipa

Le persone interessate a seguire e collaborare allo sviluppo di Frameworks possono consultare i repository git e seguire le discussioni sulla mailing list di sviluppo di KDE Frameworks. Le politiche e lo stato attuale del progetto e i relativi piani sono disponibili nel wiki Frameworks. Le discussioni in tempo reale si svolgono sul canale IRC #kde-devel su Libera Chat.
