this ide from jetbrains looks great 👀 https://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2021/11/29/welcome-to-fleet/

I hope it isn't made with Java or Electron. 🤞

Looks like electron by the looks of it😅

Written in Kotlin and Rust

Looks like JetBrain’s answer to VS Code

I feel this is much more than VS code. This focuses more on remote code hosting, collaborative editing. It is jetbrain’s answer to Github Codespaces, Gitpod etc

@colossal-microphone-41219 just to clarify, Codespaces is VS Code, so it is about moving to an architecture like VS Code.

@damp-coat-97256 looks like it is almost there 👀

@creamy-dawn-73235 what do you mean?

i mean they are offering a similar thing like codespace with fleet, ide on the cloud 😄

Yeah that's the whole intent. What I meant was, vscode isn't just a desktop IDE, it also has these capabilities when they designed it and Fleet is squarely a vscode competitor and not aiming for something bigger.

Large part of VS Code's success is that it is best example of Electron app done right, also, it is a highly active open source project. I doubt IntelliJ would make Fleet open source.

got access today, so played a bit around it. Feels so snappy and navigations are smooth. love the minimal UI with enough of white space. Gives me peace of mind after using vscode over these years. That being said, its no where near vs code as there seems many features that are missing but its solid with its currently available features. long way to go but its future looks really bright.

How’s the git integration with it? Also, is any linter integration present? As if at least those two are present, one can use it from time to time.

eslint, yes. git integration is like having github desktop embedded into the ide. bad that they don’t have framework support yet, it doesn’t syntax highlight my vue files. (nvm the code quality on the second pic, was randomly flirting with copilot 😁)

Nice, the UI is looking good so far, I know their arch is modular where most of the backend is built using Rust but I’d have hoped they used platform-specific UI SDK for frontend instead of Kotlin/Java (eg; SwiftUI on macOS, GTK/Qt on Linux, and etc.) Also,

.vue

support even on VS Code is handled by Vetur, so I doubt Fleet will ever support it natively. 😄

yeah, i have been sending feedback on their slack about the vue support. Currently it doesn’t even recognises it and treats like an unrecognised file format 🙃 hopefully they add the support and maybe replicate vetur🤞 the ui looks very minimal and the jetbrains mono with the ligatures makes it even more nicer aww
