dukescript opened a new pull request #23: Donating core DukeScript presenters to Apache NetBeans
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans-html4j/pull/23
 
 
   This is a pull request that donates the core [DukeScript presenters](https://github.com/dukescript/dukescript-presenters/) to HTML/Java subproject of Apache NetBeans. Following modules are being donated:
   * `render` - a way to start a browser - using native `GTK` (on Linux and Mac OS X), AWT or CLI
   * `generic` - `ProtoPresenterBuilder` & co. - core implementation of a presenter that handles connection between  JavaScript VM and Java VM via a textual protocol - very portable
   * `browser` - uses of `ProtoPresenterBuilder` to start a local server and let a browser connect to it
   * `webkit` - *native* presenter for Linux and Mac OS X that uses WebKit via JNA
   
   Certain functionality in Apache NetBeans requires HTML/Java and that right now needs JavaFX. With the help of these presenters, the dependency on JavaFX could be made optional.
   
   There was an interest in the Apache NetBeans community to create a presenter that would display inside of VSCode - the `browser` presenter should be enough for such task.
