This documentation lists alphabetically the software development applications available in the Kubuntu repository and gives a brief description of each, written at the beginner's level.
Since the line between text editors (TE), Integrated Development Environments (IDE) and Graphical User Interface Rapid Application Development (GUI RAD) tools have blurred with the inclusion of plugin technologies in nearly all of the tools, those dichotomies have become less significant. Therefore, the tools will be presented in alphabetical order.

Bluefish is a powerful editor targeted towards programmers and web designers, with many options to write websites, scripts and programming code. Bluefish supports many programming and markup languages, and it focuses on editing dynamic and interactive websites. Bluefish is an open source development project, released under the GNU GPL license. Bluefish runs on most (maybe all?) POSIX compatible operating systems including Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS-X, OpenBSD and Windows. Bluefish supports 16 of the most commonly used languages and scripting tools and is one of the more fully featured IDE's available. It specializes in being very fast and with a huge multi-document capability. Some tools do web development and some are simple coding IDE's. Bluefish can do both at once on multiple projects and keep them separate.
