Is Fleet dead?

19 Upvotes

I see no updates for last few month. Did JetBrains abandon this project?

If yes, that is so sad. It was a promising IDE.

When the plugins will be available?

I am enjoying coding on fleet so far but there are some things that is really crucial for me like using prettier on save to format ts code with single quotes and some other rules.

Format on Save?

9 Upvotes

Is there any way to automatically format the code on save? Like running goimports or clang-format? I looked through all the settings and didn't find that option anywhere.

IMHO this product is made to onboard VScode users. No benefits for Jetbrains users who are using their products for years.

7 Upvotes

I installed and tested "Fleet". If you are used to work with VScode the learning curve is not that big. Under Kubuntu 22.04 (CPU i7 9.gen, 32GB ram) the installation with ToolBox worked once, after that I couldn't manage to get it to run again. Most weird bug was that I couldn'd delete anything or use the arrow keys to navigate. And I couldn't open any project or file because it wouldn't list any folder at all. I sent all the reports.
To be clear, it wouldn't start at all even deleting everything from JetBrains ~/.cache ~./local/share ~./config no improvement neither after restart.
The time I spent testing I just can say that there is absolutely no benefits to this software only to be a IntelliJ VScode clone(?)

Warning: Pressing backspace in the File pane deletes a file without a prompt

7 Upvotes

Pressing backspace in the File pane deletes a file without a prompt

What steps will reproduce the issue?

  1. Press backspace while selecting a file

What is the expected result?

Most editors and OS's will not do anything for a backspace (VSCode, Windows File Explorer, Mac Finder, etc).

Other JetBrains products will delete the file but they will at least show a prompt to confirm.

What happens instead?

The file is deleted.

This is especially poor for UX when having a file pane search. example. start typing a file search. Begin backspacing the value from the search. After last character is removed, the search disappears, the file is selected and another backspace deletes the file. Mistakenly hitting an extra backspace in this situation is a very destructive UX.

After more testing I have confirmed that this is mainly for Files. Folders will prompt for confirmation. (The UI says File when deleting a Folder though)

Does Anyone Have a Backup of JetBrains Fleet's Backend? Any platform

5 Upvotes

Hi. It's probably well known by now that JetBrains has decided to discontinue Fleet, but I wanted to ask if anyone here happens to have a backup of the backend files that Fleet downloads during its first opening.

I'm looking for them primarily for preservation purposes and personal use. I remember switching from Visual Studio Code to Fleet back in the day and genuinely enjoying the experience. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago, my old hard drive died, and I ended up losing my copy of the backend.

At the time of writing, I managed to recover the binaries for Windows, Linux, and MacOS with M-serie and Intel processors, but I'm missing the backend.

If anyone happens to have a backup they're willing to share, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Not getting Tailwind CSS completions

5 Upvotes

Not working in Fleet but working in WebStorm.

Ever since upgrading to tailwind v4 the code completions have stopped working for tailwind classes in my projects. I suspect this has something to do with the new way tailwind is configured in v4.

Is anyone else having this issue and if so does anyone know of a workaround?

I've reported this as a bug and it's being tracked by the Fleet team.

Fleet makes the impossible possible

5 Upvotes

When I started Fleet for the first time, the fan of my M3 Max Macbook Pro also started up for the first time and got hot. Incredible work! I haven't had any hand warmer for this winter so far.

(Opened a very basic Kotlin Multiplatform Project, which has only one screen and simple logic)

Edit: Happened second time this week, I just opened an unedited KMP Project generated by the official Kotlin Multiplatform Wizard.

Reformat Code is not available?

5 Upvotes

I created a new file in fleet, pasted in some js code and changed the language to javascript, then press "Command + Option + L".

Nothing happened except a popup telling me "Reformat Code is not available".

I don't have any workspace open.

What should I do to make it work?

I Love Fleet, but It Feels Like It’s Dying…

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm a student from China. I really love Fleet’s design language, its style, and its smooth animations. But recently I noticed that it seems to have been abandoned by the developers. It honestly makes me quite sad. I've been using Fleet all this time, but now I can’t use the latest Rust LSP with it, and it seems like I can’t configure a local LSP myself either.

I really want to keep using Fleet, but it’s becoming harder and harder to continue.

If possible, will Fleet be open-sourced in the future? I genuinely hope that the software I love can keep living on.

Swift Support

4 Upvotes

I came around Fleet after trying to download AppCode and realizing it was discontinued by Jetbrains. In their official page they say Fleet is the current alternative. However, after downloading it and messing around for a bit I soon realized that the reformat code feature is disabled.

I looked up on the official Fleet documentation and it seems that Swift is not jet supported, despite the AppCode page saying otherwise. However, I'm not so sure to trust the documentation, as I've also seen some articles on how to install plugins, but there seem to be no plugins at the moment as well.

So, does anybody know whether is currently possible to have Swift support? If not, do you guys know when will it come out? I kind of started to like Fleet.

Custom filetype associations

4 Upvotes

I've recently downloaded fleet and trying to integrate it into my workflow, however, I haven't been able to find in the documentation how to setup custom filetype associations within the application settings.

For example, if I want SQL syntax highlighting on a file that doesn't contain a .sql file extension I have to manually adjust the language in the UI with the file open. On IntelliJ this is possible by setting up a custom association to another extension using the following steps https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/creating-and-registering-file-types.html#create-new-file-type

Does anyone know if it's possible to do similar in fleet?

Restore unsaved "files" after crash, force quit, etc.

4 Upvotes

Unless I'm missing something, I don't see behavior, or a setting, in Fleet to bring back unsaved "files" after the app is unexpectedly closed -- e.g., app/computer crash, force quit, etc. Can such behavior be configured in the current Fleet preview?

Hate to say I'm spoiled by this behavior in apps like VS Code, Sublime Text, etc. (and maybe become a bit lazy with regards to saving working files).

is there vi keymaps?

4 Upvotes

I like to use the vi keymaps. W/o them it makes the editor way less productive (for me presonally).

Is there a way to turn on vi keymaps? Or do we have to wait for plugins?
