summary

Ten years into Xtext development and after the recent Xtext 2.14 release the project announces concrete work for Xtext 2.15: better Language Server Protocol and web editor integration, demos of Xtext and Xtend features, explicit support for the Eclipse release train, and fixes for plugin performance (notably the Gradle/Cradle workflow). Expect project-import improvements, external-file editors, template-driven generators, and Code Mining and Minimap support rather than vague roadmaps.
