Great ideas, we should collect them! I plan to do a live design session at the upcoming weekend (no details yet). Feel free to send me all the input and ideas you have, or join our session if possible 😉

Re the redesign plans, see this: https://twitter.com/Dave_UX/status/1096385375273013248 Gj On Tue, Feb 19, 2019 at 11:17 PM Ondro Mihályi <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, just my 2 cents: Netbeans is first and foremost an IDE, which means you can do all the development inside it, including coding, running, debugging, testing, and even running a terminal. The current page doesn't explain that, it only stresses that it's more than an editor. Nothing about running and debugging apps which is the essential difference between IDEs and editors.
