No worries we have you covered, we're assuming your working on a Kubuntu, or another Ubuntu based Linux distribution.

Step 1

Open a terminal application such as Konsole

Step 2

Copy the following line and paste it into the terminal window at the command line.

Want more detail about what the script is doing, check the setup documentation

Start Local development of kubuntu.org

setup.sh has installed your tools, and cloned the code from Github, it's time to take a look at the website running locally on your machine.

Do this using the terminal you opened in Step 1 and type
