Apache NetBeans 12.0 adds support for the latest Java language features, integrates new code
donations from Oracle for Java Web development, enhances its best of breed Apache Maven tooling,
brings multiple enhancements for users of Gradle, includes built-in features for Payara and WildFly
for the first time, introduces new out of the box templates for JavaFX, upgrades and extends its PHP
editor, provides new dark look and feel options, and includes a wide range of fixes.
All features provided by Apache NetBeans are supported out of the box, without additional plugins
needing to be installed, and all for free. Apache NetBeans 12.0 is the first LTS release of NetBeans
as a top level Apache project.
We would like to thank all contributors, the community, and the Apache Software Foundation for the
great co-operation and enthusiasm enabling this complex and exciting project to continue to inspire
and be of use to developers all over the world.

Researchers at GitHub have identified 26 projects on GitHub that have been infected by malware[1].
The initial point of infection is undetermined and all activity with the malware has been shut down.
The malware relied on project templates generated by Apache NetBeans using an older customized
Apache Ant-based build system that has been in limited use since 2006. This does not impact users
of other build systems like Apache Maven or Gradle or even most Apache Ant users. The majority of
Apache NetBeans projects leverage native build tool integrations that are shared with continuous
integration systems. With over 44 million repositories hosted on GitHub[2], the scope of these 26
projects looks isolated, these projects have been set to private, and their owners contacted, while
GitHub has not had reason to contact the NetBeans community about this, indicating that this has no
significant impact on the NetBeans community.
Note: Software Supply Chain attacks are not unique to any IDE and the NetBeans community will
continue to monitor the threat landscape to keep developers safe and aware. Be aware[3] that any
build system that you use when developing applications, with any IDE or build system, can be
infiltrated by malware. Always make sure that the files you check into your versioning system are
your own or that you know where they come from and what they do.

Eric Barboni, our Release Manager of 11.3, produced Apache NetBeans 11.3-beta2 build the other
day. It is available for testing!
Those using the Snap distribution and would like to give it a try:
[NETBEANS-3257] Fixed issue on refactoring rename of java method (and potentially other nb-javac
issues)
[NETBEANS-3335] Enhance robustness of HTML Lexer - enter key doesn't work in certain files
Use the Plugin Manager under the Tools menu to update 11.2 to 11.2 Update 1.
One month has passed since NetBeans 11.2 had been released. There are 82 new PR-s made it to
the master branch so far. We usually have a, not necessary intentional, "theme" for each release. I'd
say the theme is for 11.3 is: "Remove the Rust".
Our code and libraries spent long time in the transit. Many of our modules were still compiling against
Java 1.6 and/or used ancient versions of third party libraries. 11.3 improved a lot on this front and
there are still many PR are in the queue to carry that on.
Without trying to be complete, here is a small list of changes what's coming:
On the UI Side:
- Return of Dark Metal and Dark Nimbus Look and Feel
- Experimental support for Flatlaf Look and Feel
On Gradle Side:
- Test Output is Channeled Back to the IDE
- Added Project Reload Action
- Elephant Icons Finally Replace the old Ones
