Visual Web Project Developer Page

The Developer pages provide detailed information about the Visual Web Pack including downloads of the latest builds, design documents, APIs, roadmaps and partner information. It also includes information about how to join the community and even participate in development.

Downloads

There are currently no binary downloads available for the open source Visual Web Pack. The project team is working to make these available in some form as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can build your own visual web binaries from source. See the Developing Visual Web section below for instructions.

Product Development Roadmap

The NetBeans Visual Web project is always released as a part of a NetBeans IDE release. Currently we are ensuring that the open source code works with the 6.0 release. The plan for the 6.0 release has not been finished yet, but work on some parts has already started. See the Visual Web Wiki for more information.
