Would be nice to give this plugin a bit more love, it would make it so much easier to adapt Kotlin in a more enterprise environment. I'm more than happy to promote Kotlin, but I'm not a big fan of pushing people away from their favorite IDE, whatever it may be.

02/04/2019, 9:01 AMWhat to do is actually obvious. Right now we are working on Gradle integration, which you can imagine pretty important to have.
And moreover right now we know it’s hard to use, so we started from doing regular updates together with Kotlin updates (only last Eclipse update missed, in future we will try not to miss). And we just hired second developer to the team, I can’t say it will dramatically change situation, but in half year I hope it will be much more usable then we have it now.
