Ubuntu Make 16.02 brings Nodejs, Lighttable IDE, Spring Tools Suite and JetBrains' Datagrip

What a great Ubuntu Make release today! The best is that all of those new supports (Nodejs, Lighttable IDE, Spring Tools Suite and JeBrains' Datagrip) are all brought thanks to our awesome Ubuntu Make community! Galileo Sartor brought a lot of goodness in previous releases, but he didn't stop there! In addition to starting reviewing other branches, he brought the nodejs and Lighttable support with extensive testsuites! I'm sure a lot of developer will appreciate those new frameworks.

Ubuntu Make 16.01.2 with Swift, eclipse php and eclipse cpp support

Last week, during UbuCon Summit, I had the pleasure to announce in sunny Pasadena a new Ubuntu Make release! Marking the 16.01.2 milestone, this one provides thanks to community contributions 3 new supported frameworks. The first one is the new Apple's opensource language name Swift lang. A lot of people are becoming more and more excited about it, and now, getting it running on Ubuntu is just a umake swift away!

I'm proud to announce this new Ubuntu Make release, with excellent new feature and fixes from our community. First, welcome Sebastian Schubert to the Ubuntu Make contributor family.

As usual, this is backed up with large and medium tests to cover us, great enhancement! :)

Ubuntu Make 15.09 featuring experimental Unity 3D editor support

Last thurday, the Unity 3D team announced providing some experimental build of Unity editor to Linux. This was quite an exciting news, especially for me as a personal Unity 3D user. Perfect opportunity to implements this install support in Ubuntu Make, and this is now available for download! The "experimental" comes from the fact that it's experimental upstream as well, there is only one version out (and so, no download section when we'll always fetch latest) and no checksum support.

Ubuntu Make 15.08 with Scala support and a visual studio code hot fix community story

Here is a little bit of the start of my day: As usual, I open the Ubuntu Make large test suite running continuously against trunk and latest release package. I saw that since yesterday 7PM CEST Visual Studio Code page changed its syntax and is not downloadable anymore by Ubuntu Make. Jumping on the github's project page, I saw a couple of bugs opened about it, and as well a pull request to fix this from a new contributor, Vartan Simonian!

Arduino support and various fixes in Ubuntu Make 0.9

A warm summer has started in some part of the world and holidays: beach and enjoying various refreshements! However, the unstoppable Ubuntu Make team wasn't on a pause and we continued making improvements thanks to the vibrant community around it! What's new in this release?

Ubuntu Make 0.7 released with Visual Studio Code support

If you followed recent news, yesterday Microsoft announced Visual Studio Code support on stage during their Build conference. One of the nice surprise was that this new IDE, focused on web and cloud platforms, is available on Mac OS X and of course, on Linux! Some screenshots were presented at the conference with Visual Studio Code running on Ubuntu in an Unity Session. This sounded like a nice opportunity for Ubuntu Make to shine again, and we just added this new support!

Ubuntu Make community releases 0.6 with 5 new supported platforms

What always inspires me in my work is that community participation is at heart of what we are doing, and that’s what help us waking up everyday. Anybody can dive and fix small typos, bugs, or even bring big features to the table! This is exactly what happened with this new Ubuntu Make 0.6 release, entirely backed by community participation! In addition to zsh support, you will find 5 new jetbrains IDE supported into the “ide” Ubuntu Make category, which are: RubyMine, PyCharm educational edition, PyCharm professional, WebStorm and PhpStorm!
