That blog does not mention any plans to donate those vital parts to make Apache NetBeans an IDE for (modern) Web
Applications.
Does that mean there is no such plan?
And yes, I am not a contributor - I am a user and have been for over 15 years.
The community does not only consist of contributors - it also needs happy users
to grow.
I have been trying to advocate NetBeans in my work environment (30% InteliJ, 69% Eclipse), but this is getting
increasingly difficult to justify.
I actually had a conversation like that some weeks ago:
someone: "Hey Karl, I would like to try NetBeans as that apparently works so well
for you"
me: Sure, download NetBeans from https://netbeans.org/ it has everything you
need
someone: Does it support Java 10?
me: No, but you can use the Apache NetBeans 9.0 dev build - it's pretty stable
someone (a few minutes later): I can't find the JSP or the JavaScript support. How can I use it for the npm based React
parts?
me: you can't, Apache NetBeans 9.0 only supports Java SE
someone: OK, I'll go back to InteliJ then

No offence, but please read the blog:

Whoever you think "Oracle" is, Oracle is me, and many others in Oracle who have contributed to Apache NetBeans from
the beginning:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/graphs/contributors
Above, I see many people from Oracle. I don't see you. I therefore prefer
people from Oracle. :-)
Thanks,

No offense, but what use is a Java IDE in 2018 without support for web

If that is Oracle's secret plan to kill NetBeans by making it unusable for
professional development, it's working.
Is there at least a time frame on why Oracle wants to donate that? (If they
actually pan to do that)

Not in 9.0, which is focused on Java SE only. All the JavaScript features
(and Java EE, PHP, Groovy, C/C++) must
still be donated to Apache by Oracle.

I have an Angular application that works just fine running “ng serve”
from the command line. What is the
best way to run this project in netbeans? I found some things on the
internet, but they seem out of date or
not quite what I want. Can I run this as a Node.js application and
with the correct project properties, have
netbeans run “ng serve”?
Thanks!
