Your right I’m not someone that knows all the inner workings of all things Netbeans or Python, which is why I’ve been asking to those on the list to get guidance. I’m doing this in my free time without support elsewhere.
Over the course of the last few years, I’ve waited for donation updates without much luck. I got it compiling, I updated licenses assuming it was eventually going to come through, and found problems that will need to be resolved eventually (i.e. GitHub CI builds failure due to api depreciated api check). This is what I’ve done so far (see screenshots of working code on my notes here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ua48Uu6OTKNkcG_9sQOOicl5JpjrBtMgSy4SSjumAuU So if that isn’t enough then maybe I should move on to a community more welcome to new developers.
