             Summary: Excessive notifications: node.js not found, TypeScript 
support disabled
                 Key: NETBEANS-5221
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5221
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: platform - Notifications
    Affects Versions: Next
         Environment: Windows 10 64-bit, OpenJDK 11.0.6
            Reporter: Michal Koscielny
         Attachments: netbeans-node1.png, netbeans-node2.png

In some of my PHP projects I have package.json and package-lock.json files in 
the root directory but I don't have node.js installed. In this scenario I get 
bombarded with baloon notifications saying "node.js not found, TypeScript 
support disabled" every time I open the project or save any file. After a while 
my notification log is filled with lots of such notifications and they distract 
me needlessly:

!netbeans-node1.png!

!netbeans-node2.png!

This didn't happen in Netbeans 12.2 but started happening in the dev builds so 
this change must be recent. I'm now using 
Build dev-1198c6642612764150ad3d0911bf8f437eef6601 dated at 2021-01-04.

There should be a way to silence or get rid of such notifications entirely 
since they are useless in such scenarios. Because there are node.js config 
files present in the project doesn't mean I have to install node.js on my 
computer just to not be nagged by Netbeans notifications - for example, other 
developers might be responsible for node.js stuff while I'm working with other 
technologies in the same project.

I know I can hide info notifications with the filter but it is not ideal 
because I don't want to miss other notifications which may be important to me.
