At the moment, the asset loading code works upon the assuming that gestalt-module is used. In the future, NUI may be integrated with other projects that do not use gestalt. This plugin should therefore not make assumptions about the use of gestalt modules with NUI.

Assets should be loadable from any location in the same IntelliJ module/project and its dependencies. A more flexible form of asset loading should be preferred that does not rely on hard-coded file extensions.

When editing the JSON in NUI Skin files (.skin files), the editor should suggest widget types and their known modes. The styles should be validated against a known UISkin schema. The widget types should be linked to their corresponding classes via the Ctrl+Mouse Hover action. The widget modes should be auto-completed for at least the built-in widgets, with the option for external types later-on.

Occasionally the task loading the UI Layout files will fail, causing the preview to not be rendered. Closing the file and re-opening this usually fixes it but ideally the root cause of this issue should be identified and fixed.
