Look on KDE bugzilla, kipi-plugins section, and Imgur web service tool
issues.

https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=CONFIRMED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&component=ImgurExport&product=kipiplugins&query_format=advanced

There are file to review, comment, test, and patches. Use directly bugzilla
to post comment and patch. We are directly in CC.

You cannot. A plugin need to recompile source code relevant at least. Also
they depend on libkipiplugins on common dir.

But a tool can be compiled alone, whithout all other. just rune "make -j"
in tool directory.

To test, you need to instal the tool. run "make install/fast" in tool
directory.

Use Kate editor. It's more simple and as all you need for that.

KDE Neon sound more adapted as well...
