We’ve been working on defining our roadmap for Ktor for 2023, and much like we did for 2022, we’d like to share our plans with you and what we have in store. One of the things we’re planning on doing this year is releasing 3.0.0. While major versions generally indicate a breaking change, most of the changes are in regards to API and packaging. In particular We’re going to release the new simplified routing API that we’ve been working on.We’re switching to Tomcat 11, Jetty 11, and upgrading Apache Client to support version 5.We’re extracting the IO functionality into a separate library. T

Since the initial announcement of Fleet, we have had an overwhelming amount of interest from all of you, with over 137,000 people signing up for the private preview. Our reason for starting with a closed preview was to be able to process the feedback in a gradual way. We want to thank each and every person who took part in this private preview, and we also want to apologize to everyone who didn’t receive an invitation. Fortunately you no longer need to wait. Fleet is still in its infancy, and there is a significant amount of work ahead of us. However, today we’re announcing the first public

We’ve just released Ktor 2.1.0, and in addition to the new features and bug fixes, we have a few new things we’d love for you to try out. In particular, we are releasing betas of three new tools: Command Line toolYeoman GeneratorGradle Deployment PluginYAML configuration support Let’s take a look at each of these individually. Native Command Line Tool Ktor provides two ways to simplify creating new application templates – IntelliJ IDEA or start.ktor.io. We’ve now extended this by providing a command line tool built in Kotlin/Native. However, beyond just generating a Ktor

We’re extremely excited to announce the release of Ktor 2.0. We have been working on this version for approximately one year and happy to finally get it out the door! Ktor 2.0 introduces many new features, but a major version which means that there are breaking changes, it has allowed us the opportunity to perform some maintenance work and get rid of legacy decisions. Don’t worry though - despite the breaking changes, we’ve tried our best to minimize these and also aid with some tooling that hopefully can help with automated migrations. More on that later though, first let’s take a lo

We’re one month into 2022, and on the Ktor team we’re focusing on finalizing the little that is left from our side on 2.0 and waiting for Kotlin 1.6.20 to be released so as to release 2.0. At the same time, we're planning the next things to be worked on. As some of you know, we had published our roadmap for 2020-2021 and while we didn’t manage to deliver on everything on it, we weren’t far off. However we also realized that we did in fact bite off more than we could chew. This led us to try and figure out whether the whole approach to a roadmap where you have a fixed timeline

This is a multipart series on building Fleet, a next generation IDE by JetBrains. Part I - Architecture OverviewPart II – Breaking Down the EditorPart III – State ManagementPart IV – Distributed TransactionsPart V – The Story of Code CompletionPart VI – UI with Noria We recently announced a new product which we have been working on named Fleet, a new generation IDE by JetBrains. The product is currently in closed preview and we’re receiving great feedback from early adopters, helping us improve it and get it ready for a public preview sometime in 2022. In the meantime, and until we’re

On December 27, 2021, we became aware of a security issue that exposes certain JetBrains Remote Development backend IDEs to the networks the server is connected to. This was a result of misconfiguration on our side. The following IDEs were affected: IntelliJ IDEA 2021.3.1 Preview (213.6461.21) and IntelliJ IDEA 2021.3.1 RC (213.6461.48)PyCharm Professional 2021.3.1 RC (213.6461.6)GoLand 2021.3.1 (213.6461.23)PhpStorm 2021.3.1 Preview (213.6461.28) and PhpStorm 2021.3.1 RC (213.6461.58)RubyMine 2021.3.1 Preview (213.6461.24) and RubyMine 2021.3.1 RC (213.6461.46)CLion 2021.3.1 (213.6461.4

What happened Similar to the rest of the industry, we became aware on the 10th of December 2021 of the Remote Code Execution vulnerability CVE-2021-44228 in the popular Java logging library log4j (all versions between 2.0 and 2.14.1 are vulnerable). We immediately took action to mitigate any potential impacts on our applications and systems. We'd like to provide you with an update. Actions we've taken We have run an audit of the applications that use log4j and have upgraded to 2.15.0 where necessary. Following is the list of already audited products and their status: All IntelliJ

Update (Dec 3, 2021): We’ve received an overwhelming number of requests for the Fleet Early Preview program. Unfortunately we can't accept any new requests, but we will continue sending invites to those who have already signed up. You're welcome to subscribe for updates and the public preview announcement at jetbrains.com/fleet or follow @JetBrains_Fleet on Twitter. For years folks have been asking us, "JetBrains, when will you create a lightweight editor?" Well, today we're extremely happy to announce Fleet, a lightweight editor but with a twist! When you first launch Fleet, it s

On the 22nd of October at 5:06 pm CEST a message was posted on the #javascript channel of the Kotlin Slack about a potential security issue, at which time we began our investigations. On the 23rd of October, it was reported that malware was found in a very popular npm package named ua-parser-js. The package had been compromised, and a password stealer and cryptocurrency miner installed on target machines. Kotlin Multiplatform (targeting JS) and Kotlin/JS use a very popular testing framework named Karma. This in turn has a dependency on the affected package (ua-parser-js). In addition,

Exactly one year ago, we announced our plans for the upcoming year. Let's look back and see how we're doing. Focus Areas When we announced the roadmap, we focused on a few key areas that we wanted to improve. While on some of these, we've managed to deliver, on others we're not there yet. We've done a ton of work when it comes to Documentation. Our technical writer Andrey Aksenov deserves a lot of credit for mostly single-handedly not only rewriting many parts of the documentation, but also working on restructuring, and addressing new issues as they come in. Documentation however is a
