How to code "hello world" with kdevelop?

So I thought I'd learn some KDE programming and fired up KDevelop 3 hrs ago. For a start I wanted some simple "hello_word" message box, a quit button, and thats it.
I already wrote quite a lot of C console applications with various text editors, and I also wrote windows applications with visual c++. I thought writing a GUI "hello world" with kdevelop can't be too hard. Now I know I was wrong. Very wrong.
As I've never used kdevelop before, I was looking for some tutorial to guide me in my first steps. Within the last 3 hrs I didn't find a single tutorial that's not either outdated (refering to KDE 1.x and some old kdevelop beta seems common), or just pastes some src code and tells you something like "now compile the code" without providing any hint where to paste that code too.
I run KDE 3.1.2 and KDevelop 2.1. Can't there be _one_ useful tutorial for an absoloute kdevelop beginner?????

QT Assistant has some nice tutorials on using QT, but they aren't kdevelop specific. It's assistant from the command line. Type "QT Tutorial" in the index.

Once I've tried to learn kde/qt coding, I used the tutorial part of qt-docs (it starts with a hello world message box-with a quit button example

[should be in /usr/share/doc/qt ...]

There are also some tutorials on http://developer.kde.org
They helped me a lot on getting into kde development.
