Developers  Discover Solid Writing Applications Solid APIs Getting Involved | Getting Involved as a DeveloperWant to help make Solid the best it can be? We are looking for
motivated developers who enjoy working with others on exciting projects. The first step to getting involved is joining the devel mailing list which you can do using the web interface. Archives of the mailing list available online as well. You may also find developers in #solid on the Freenode IRC Network. Additionally, you may want to check out the developer's Solid wiki, which includes a page of tasks suitable for beginners or intermediate developers. Next you will want to get a KDE4 development environment set up. Here is an email detailing how to accomplish this that was written by one of the Plasma developers. C++ DevelopersIf you are a C++ developer, you may want to help us work on the core components of Solid which are all written in C++ using the Qt and KDE frameworks. Moreover if you have some knowledge about a particular system, you
may want to help maintain the corresponding backend, or create new ones
in order to port Solid to this new platform. But if you aren't a hardcore C++ developer, don't worry. There are
many other things you can do to get involved! For example, the Solid
knowledge base client doesn't require a lot of skills and it might be
the perfect component if you want to be introduced to C++ development.
Web Application DevelopersIf you are a Perl or PHP developer and have some experience building
web applications using a database, you may want to help us work on the
Solid Knowledge Base application. This application will allow to track
devices behavior on the platforms having backends for Solid. Writing Applications & Applets
