The'I' in IDE should also stand for "invisible"
A exploratory project to build a lighter, simpler Java IDE - or learn trying!
One of the harder parts of developing on a team is getting new members setup for development quickly and consistently. Corona IDE aims to provide a light-weight environment which helps developers do what they need to do, and to do it in a way which is portable and repeatable.

Corona IDE is currently in pre-alpha development - basic functionality is still being implemented.
Pull requests should include:
- Minimum side-effect changes
- Documented methods, classes, etc
- Tests (where possible)
- Changelog entries
Corona IDE is currently written against Java 1.8. Testing use the TestNG framework, and the mock testing library of choice is mockito
Until Corona IDE reaches general availability with required features, it will be developed within Eclipse. It is recommended to create an isolated workspace for Corona IDE. You should also import the standard Corona IDE formatting and save settings from eclipseConfiguration:
Java > CodeStyle > Cleanup
is imported from cleanup.xmlJava > CodeStyle > Formatter
is imported from codeformatter.xmlJava > CodeStyle > Code Templates
is imported from codetemplates.xml
It is also recommended to turn on "save actions", under the Java Editor settings, to format saved lines and perform other cleanup operations
Once settings are configured, use the Eclipse Gradle IDE plug-in (we are currently using STS) to import all projects from the root of the repository
Corona IDE has the plug-ins required for Gradle Build Scan setup. Simply run a build with the -Dscan
option, and a build scan will be performed
