Amper 0.10 – JDK Provisioning, a Maven Converter, Custom Compiler Plugins, and More | The Amper Blog
Blog post from JetBrains
Amper 0.10.0 introduces several new features, including JDK provisioning that allows for automatic installation of JDK 21, with options for specifying different versions via the module.yaml file, and a semi-automated Maven conversion tool that facilitates transitioning existing Maven projects to Amper by mapping dependencies and settings. This release also supports third-party Kotlin compiler plugins, enhances the IDE with improved UI for running commands and profiling JVM applications, and enhances test tool windows with better test name displays. Additional improvements include support for Maven profiles in transitive dependencies, the ability to add module descriptions in Markdown, and updates to default versions for toolchains and frameworks like Kotlin and Spring Boot. The Amper platform remains experimental, encouraging user feedback through channels like the Kotlinlang Slack and YouTrack for continued development and improvement.
