Useful resources to make your development journey easier
Most KDE software is written in C++ using the Qt toolkit and KDE Frameworks. Though prior experience with these technologies or other programming languages is helpful, you don't need to be a C++ programmer to get started! For example, no programming knowledge whatsoever is required to do things like improving text labels.
If you'd like to dive deeper into it:
The Qt wiki contains a list of online books for learning Qt programming.
Qt also provides lots of examples you can look at.
For visual learners, this YouTube playlist of QML tutorials by KDE patron KDAB may be useful.
The reference API documentation for KDE Frameworks can be found on the KDE API website.
KDE also provides a curated wiki page full of learning resources.
