Hey! Kotlin team is wondering if this feedback question would be clear to you. Could you help us by letting us know how you understand it? kodee pleased Imagine that, while working in IntelliJ IDEA, you see this feedback window pop up (see the picture attached). What do you think we're asking you to evaluate? Please vote by reacting to this post: 1️⃣ It’s about my experience with Gradle as a build tool. 2️⃣ It’s about my experience with Gradle in the context of Kotlin. 3️⃣ It’s about how Gradle integrates with the IDE. 4️⃣ It’s about my overall experience using Gradle. 5️⃣ It’s about my overall experience using Kotlin. 6️⃣ I’ll write my own interpretation in the thread. Thanks a lot for your help!

My 2 cents: I welcome emails, slack messages or pinned issues asking for feedback but I'm not a fan of those windows. When in the IDE, I'm in production mode and don't want my workflow interrupted. So it's fine if I trigger it myself (
Help > Send Feedback
) but if it pops up, not only is it annoying but I won't have any context what it's about.

It's about how Gradle integrates with the IDE
- perhaps using this as a title for the popup would make the message more clear.

Thank you for mentioning that! We don't intend to interrupt any workflows; these feedback forms might only appear during periods of inactivity.

well… inactivity from the IDE perspective doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t be an interruption. I’ll sometimes be starting at code for a while, pondering things… would be Quite Annoyed if a window suddenly popped up.
