Here are the steps.

You will need git, cmake, make, gcc or clang compiler, extra-cmake-modules
package

sudo pacman -S git gcc g++ cmake make extra-cmake-modules

git clone https://invent.kde.org/utilities/kate
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. && make -j8
QT_PLUGIN_PATH=.bin/ ./bin/kate -n .

That should be it I think. This will be a local build i.e., won't interfere
with the system one but will reuse the same settings. the last command should
start up kate. The "QT_PLUGIN_PATH=./bin" env var is important as it will load
the newly built plugins in the "bin" subdir and not your system Kate's plugins
which can be confusing.

Thanks for the article. I saw you were looking for something like AlignTab.
That should actually be not that hard to implement via scripts. In fact, all
our indenters are written in scripts. If you want to try, the built-in scripts
can be used as reference:
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/ktexteditor/-/tree/master/src/script/data

^ That's where you can find the python indenter, sort, uniq and other stuff.
