Is there a KDE doc that shows how to set up Build & Run from Kate for python. I’ve found some old reddit and a linkedin guide but they are a bit to old to be useful. Same with the docs as linked below. As none of the target set options are there that they show. If its something I have to add any write up would be appreciated. The flatpak & nix pkg both have nothing showing.  
Honestly I wish there was just a plugin for this kinda thing for python at this point.
