Hi guys, I researched a bit on IDEA's capabilities for something like the SWT Browser and there is no such thing. Looking for Swing browsers:
* JavaFX Webview [1], but it seems JavaFX is not fully supported in IDEA [2] * DJProject [3], but it is not developed since 2011 and probably lacks functionality * JxBrowser [4] can do everything we need and looks really good, but is commercial. I asked them for an open source license and they do provide free licenses to open source products, so that should be no problem. Is there a problem with the Saros license when we embed a closed-source 3rd party library?
