So I have an ubuntu vm on my laptop.  I installed it with the command, but when 
I click on the app, nothing happens.  I typically just run on windows, but was 
just trying this.  Not enough experience with Linux to know much else on this 
one...any ideas?

Mike

Subject: Apache NetBeans Development Builds are Available as Snap Package

Dear all,

This would mostly interest of Linux users, though from now on NetBeans 
Development Builds are available in form of Snap packages. See: 
https://snapcraft.io/netbeans-dev

It can be installed as easy as:

sudo snap install --channel edge --classic netbeans-dev

What would you get:

  * We are building this package from our master branch on Apache
    infrastructure on every Thursday
  * With Snap distribution you get the package updates automatically
  * You can live and test on the edge without any hustle
  * If something goes south, snap always have a way to roll back a
    previous build.
  * The package can coexists with the "official" netbeans, package

It is Ok to share this information, but do not promote it. The package is 
hidden in the Snap store, so if you search for it it won't be displayed.

Just some additional info on the NetBeans Snap Package:

We have 9200+ installations so far, the weekly active devices using this 
package is around 1200 people. It is installed ~60 different linux OS/versions, 
though not surprisingly Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.04 takes are the most common OS 
where it is installed.

Geographically the package is strong in: EU, Brazil, India and US
