is there any info on the netbeans plugin support? some students in my school are interested in kotlin but can’t switch to IDEA as they have never used and prefer netbeans

I think that was asked/mentioned during the closing at kotlinconf. I got impression that eclipse plugin was a priority and way above net beans as one doesn't hear of many net beans users. If they want kotlin, I'd suggest they use idea community edition.

Our school only allows Netbeans usage for the CS course, and many students are reluctant to have both ;\

That's a ridiculous rule. Comparable to indoctrination, except not for politics.

it’s the IB rules. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lol, hanlon’s razor, right?

Thankfully for the IA you are not language bound

Hurts my eyes to see someone prefers netbeans over intellij :)

If you use it for long enough or when you start it's all you know

Java 5.0? 😄

Java 8

a prof at our university likes netbeans.. so thats what his students have to work in, its a miracle he did not get strangled yet - old fart

Netbeans users are very loyal, so I personally am reluctant to diss it. Regardless, I strongly prefer IntelliJ 😉 @Hamza How will they know you’re using Netbeans? And they’d actually allow Kotlin? Weird.

The IB computer science course is different from the grade 10 computer science course
