Current release focus

Explorer experienceFile Explorer, Project Explorer, and Package Explorer now work as a coordinated tabbed surface with workspace-aware defaults.

Java workflow qualityRuntime-aware compilation and diagnostics better reflect configured versions, including Java 8 compatibility and Java 21+ scenarios.

Debugging reliabilityVariable inspection is improved for loop-scoped and conditional values in Java debugging flows.

Project actionsSupported projects now surface clearer actions such as Deploy To, Run Unit Tests…, and Debug Unit Tests… from project-oriented explorers.

Source controlBranch visibility and common operations such as push, fetch, pull, and sync are more consistent inside the IDE.

User guidanceWelcome, documentation, release notes, and privacy messaging now better reflect the current platform surface.

Why this matters: the product now does a better job of matching available actions to the active workspace, project type, and runtime configuration instead of relying on one-size-fits-all defaults.

Platform capabilities reflected in recent updates

Multi-provider AI assistance with support for Ollama, OpenAI, GitHub Copilot, and Anthropic Claude, depending on deployment configuration.

Workspace-aware navigation with shared explorer tabs and Java-specific package navigation.

Integrated terminal, build flows, runtime selection, and debugging from a single browser workspace.

Project-level actions for tests, builds, deployments, and server configuration management in supported stacks.

Authentication, preferences, subscription management, billing information, and quota visibility for guest and registered users.

Operational guidance through runbooks, public docs, release notes, and in-product help surfaces.

Release history

Latest

Workspace-aware productivity update

Refined explorer behavior so Java workspaces can expose both Project Explorer and Package Explorer by default, while non-project folders stay focused on File Explorer.
Improved explorer tab behavior, hover states, and discoverability in narrow layouts.
Filtered irrelevant root-level hidden entries from project-oriented trees to reduce noise.
Aligned default explorer state with workspace identity so previous sessions do not override new workspace behavior.

Workflow

Run, test, deploy, and source control improvements

Updated project and package explorers to use Deploy To for supported deployment targets.
Added project-level Run Unit Tests… and Debug Unit Tests… actions where supported.
Improved source control integration for branch visibility, fetch, push, sync, and remote handling.
Expanded server-configuration controls and project-type-aware enablement of deploy actions.

Java

Runtime and diagnostics compatibility update

Removed hardcoded runtime assumptions so compile and diagnostics flows can use workspace or project runtime preferences.
Improved Java 8 library and module visibility in package-oriented navigation.
Resolved Java 21 virtual-thread related compilation and diagnostics issues in the browser workflow.
Improved debugger parsing for object and variable evaluation inside loops and conditional branches.
