Hello,
Regarding the software to use, KDE uses Git and CMake. These are pretty much the \
(new) only things that you need. For editing code you can use any text editor or IDE \
you prefer. You need to get familiar with kdelibs and how a KDE project is \
structured. The best way to do this is to choose a bug from a project of your liking \
and try to fix it. http://bugs.kde.org[1]
Look for junior jobs at first.
https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?keywords=junior-jobs&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&list_id=758623[2] \
Then submit the patches to the review board: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org[3]
Also on IRC #kde and #kde-devel is a good place to ask questions. The project you \
choose might also have it's own IRC channel.
I hope this will be helpful.
P.S. It's motivating to fix a bug that bugs you.
