Introducing Amper, a new experimental project configuration tool focused on usability, onboarding, and IDE support.
Will Amper kill Maven and Gradle?
Will Amper kill Maven and Gradle?
If it works and it is free then maybe, but probably still not. Also it is a Gradle plugin, so it will not touch Maven at all. And it uses yaml configs... I do not like this at all 😀
Maven is very good for small projects and Gradle take a niche of Ant on steroids. Nobody in his sane mind will migrate from one build system to other until benefits of migration outweighs the burden of redoing all pipelines from scratch.
The problem with JB products that they are barely working now. If you step one iota outside of mainstream functionality then it will break.
Both Maven and Gradle integration are very very brittle. And also not really optimized for big projects with big amount of modules/sources.
And I love JB products. It saddens me to see every year I drops in quality of IntelliJ. And New fancy interface transition is just the mess.
Migration to the subscription based allowed JB to release more products but overral quality dropped.
