Heya,

I hope you found your way around the KDevelop source code.

It just came to my mind that our TODO board is good place to start as well:
  https://todo.kde.org/?controller=board&action=show&project_id=20

You might need an account to look into it, create one at:
  https://identity.kde.org/

Just ask if you need assistance.

Cheers
