|kitty| is designed to run from source, for easy hack-ability. Make sure
the following dependencies are installed first.
.. note::
If you are making changes only to the python parts of kitty, there is no need to
build kitty at all, instead, assuming you have installed the official kitty
binaries, you can simply set the KITTY_DEVELOP_FROM enviroment variable to
point to the directory into which you have checked out the kitty source
code. kitty will then load its python code from there.
