It has been a while now since my last mail, and it seems that there is no appetite for doing this (unless someone is working on it, in which case I will be embarassed).
I am of the opinion that *Apache* Groovy, as scripting language, should be a first-class citizen of *Apache* Netbeans. In 2013 Geertjan felt it was important enough to develop a plugin (which stopped working in NB 11 and/or with the move away from groovy-all.jar releases) Geertjan, Laszlo and Hector, thank you for showing interest. ________________________________ From: Walter Kruse <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, 26 June 2020 10:08 To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Groovy project in Apache NetBeans? Hi, I backed off in the run-up to the last release, but now I would like to advocate for this feature request. As a mentor of Groovy coders I want to recommend NB as IDE to aspiring Groovy scripters, with the ability to create a Groovy project and run Groovy scripts out of the box. So please consider this for the next release. I can offer technical writing and testing as contribution.

Well, Right now both Maven and Gradle has some Groovy support meaning they are able to display and open projects with Groovy source sets, so including some Groovy project creation wizard would be pretty simple for those. However the Groovy folks like to have things like Grape (in code dependency management) and maybe some other strange things which we do not have support for. BTW Can I put a line to the wish list: Support for mixed compile. What I mean: We have a Groovy project in the Gradle support at: groovy/gradle/netbeans-gradle-tooling which have java and Groovy code mixed. Groovy seems to be able to process the Java code, but Java can't process the Groovy one. BTW I think I need to file an issue on that.
