Some time before many people had
really got their heads around
application stores,
a little IDE called NetBeans, which turns 10 this week,
had one for its plugins.Have you dropped in lately ? (Everything has the same price, btw).
We all get attached to our tools. Your humble Planetarium Janitor was glacially slow to realize that his days with just a text editor and compiler were over, and it can be the smallest things that suck you in to a new toolset.
With built in support for Java SE development - gui builder, visual debugger and profiler, for Java ME development - supporting both CLDC and CDC class devices with emulators and visual designer, support for JavaFX development, and supporting a host of languages as well as Java: JavaScript, Ruby and many more, if you haven't taken a look at NetBeans lately, maybe you should !
