GitHub user hantsy created a discussion: The future of NetBeans UI
NetBeans UI is heavily dependent on Swing, which has almost stopped adding new features. And in the future, it could be removed from the standard JDK redistribution. Is it possible to use today's AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) to migrate the NetBeans IDE to use JavaFX for the UI, modernize the codebase to embrace new Java features(functional programming, records, virtual thread, etc.), and use Jakarta Inject to replace the `Lookup` system, etc.? These days, I've found that BlueJ 6 has already fully switched to JavaFX.
