A little whinge (sorry!)
by Bryan Feeney on Friday 04/Aug/2006, @04:31

KDevelop is pretty impressive, but I've always found the fact that it started with 30 toolbar buttons and 14 tabs to be a bit intimidating. Could it be possible to re-organise the IDE along the lines of NetBeans or Visual Studio so there's not such a bewildering amount of information on-screen at one time?

Otherwise though, keep up the good work. I've always been amazed at how far I can get with KDevelop using just the usual wizards.

Settings->Configure Plugins...

Remove what you don't want/use.

Or as Adam said a "messy soup of features that do not always integrate well with each other". :)

One of the big opportunities for KDevelop 4 is to clean up our UI.

Personally, I want it to work like XCode. Did you notice that Qt 4 designer works like XCode? With the top-level and docked modes?

We will also be providing a perspectives feature that will blow everything else out of the water. How? It will be fully configurable. You define your own perspectives in addition to the pre-defined ones. Work the way you want!
