The new IntelliJ Platform Gradle plugin 2.10.0 makes it easier to set up Compose and Jewel in your plugins!

ooooh. is this essentially a one-liner to add jewel now? or am mi missing something

[seb]

Indeed, at least for the basic stuff. Not entirely sure if that also includes markdown and its extensions :)

That’s super cool, but how do we actually do it?

[seb]

I think @Jakub Chrzanowski may be the right person to answer you Gradle plugin questions

[seb]

I imagine there is or will be documentation

[Colton Idle]

interesting. that makes it sound like its not the preferred way to create a plugin. maybe im misunderstanding what IJ gradle plugin repo is actually about. lol

[seb]

If you mean Compose/Jewel is not the main recommendation, then indeed that's the case. It's officially a tech preview for 3p plugins still.

[seb]

That will get more and more stable and recommended over time but it's still early days

[Colton Idle]

im just looking for the main recommendation to build IJ/AS plugins using jewel. I thought thats what the IJ gradle plugin repo was above that you linked.

[seb]

The IJ Gradle plugin is the only officially supported way to develop IntelliJ Platform plugins, with or without Jewel involved

[seb]

I linked it because the new version added a simplified way to set up Compose/Jewel. That's all there is to it.

[Colton Idle]

understood. thank you for clarifying!

[seb]

No problem :)
