Did you know that Apache NetBeans 28 was recently released?🎀
I looked into it a bit and found that quite a few areas have been updated, which made me go "Huh~"💭
What is Apache NetBeans?
First of all, Apache NetBeans is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for programming.
In other words, it's one of the handy tools used when creating software or applications✨
I'm still not an expert at using it myself, but it seems helpful for writing code and debugging.
So it appears to be quite important for engineers🧠
What Changed in Version 28?
Summarizing the official release notes roughly, this update mainly focused on bug fixes and performance improvements❣️
But you know, they also paid attention to the details, for example...
- Java 20 support got better👀
- Code completion accuracy improved a bit apparently✨
- UI responsiveness improved, making movements smoother🥺
- Integration with build tools like Maven and Gradle was enhanced🔧
It seems like the main focus was on adjustments to reduce user stress💡
Updates Might Seem Minor But They're Important
Honestly, it's not like there were massive visual changes or flashy new features added, so at first I wasn't that impressed😳
But these small fixes and improvements accumulate and make the software easier to use over time.
That feeling of the software being lighter or movements not stuttering anymore might be thanks to these behind-the-scenes efforts💗
To Summarize...
Apache NetBeans 28 feels like a version that evolved to let you code more stably and comfortably💬
If you regularly use NetBeans, updating would give you peace of mind✨
I thought that once I study programming a bit more, I'd like to become more sensitive to these tool update news too🍓

It's amazing how much improvement they've made with quarterly updates, especially since people thought it was dead!

I made my first Ruby on Rails app with NetBeans.

I have good memories of NetBeans.

I'd like to try it if there's a vi plugin.
グレース
I liked the idea of creating standalone apps with the NetBeans platform, but it's a shame it didn't become more popular.

NetBeans aside, I like the wavy effect under the links on this site.

Are people still using this IDE? My senior was using it in 2017, and since everyone was on IntelliJ, we were like 'What's that old thing?' lol
