 ====== Use KDevelop with Existing Build Configuration ======
-Using an integrated development environment for developing EEROS applications is highly recommended. You have all the features such as source code lookup, code completion or automatic compiling.
+Using an integrated development environment for developing EEROS applications is highly recommended. You have all the features such as source code lookup, code completion or automatic compiling. We recommend to use an integrated development environment such as [[https://www.kdevelop.org/]] or [[https://code.visualstudio.com/]]. Get the program with e.g.
+<code>
+$ apt-get install kdevelop
+</code>
 If you have previously built your application manually or with the aid of the [[https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git|EEROS scripts]], you can import the configuration into KDevelop as follows:
   - Import the project by choosing the ''CMakeLists.txt'' of your project, eg. //workingDirectory/hello/CMakeLists.txt// or //workingDirectory/simple-motor-control/CMakeLists.txt//.
   - This will automatically open the project configuration panel.
-  - Choose the build directory of the previously built application as your build directory, e.g. //workingDirectory/build-x86/hello// or //workingDirectory/build-x86/simple-motor-control//
+  - Choose the build directory of the previously built application as your build directory, e.g. //workingDirectory/build-x86/hello// or //workingDirectory/build-x86/simple-motor-control// {{ :getting_started:kdev-build-config.png?600 |}}
   - Leave the entries for install directory, build type, and extra arguments empty. These settings will be fetched from the existing CMake configuration in your build directory.
   - Click ''Ok''
