| NetBeans Graph Library |
| Recently made available as a public API, the NetBeans Graph library supports |
| visual modelling of source code elements - or any kind of diagrammable model. |

| enough to use in any Swing application. |

| You Too Can Extend the Component Palette |
| Even if you never thought of developing modules before, it's a good idea to give |
| it a go anyway, especially if you're a web developer. In NetBeans IDE 5.0, web |
| developers have a component palette with code snippets (chunks of JSP and HTML |
| tags) that they can drag into their JSP file or HTML file. However, it's very |
| easy to create modules that add additional code snippets to the Component Palette |
| and to then share the snippets with other developers -- just create a quick |
| NetBeans module containing your code snippets, generate an NBM file, and then |
| distribute the NBM file to whoever needs it. For details, see Geertjan's blog: |
