Bug Description
I installed netbeans with `apt` which supplies version 10.0 (out of date) and doesn't support HTML5 nor Javascript projects.
I tried installing the plugins en mass and one-by-one followed by restarting. No help. Apparently, the HTML and Javasript plugin installations fail silently in spite of stating "success".
The installed version is 10.0 which is no longer supported:
ii netbeans 10.0-3ubuntu3 all Extensible Java IDE
My Java version is openjdk 14-ea 2020-03-17 on Xubuntu 20.04.

Okay, I installed it the wrong way by using `apt`.
This gave me netbeans version 11.3:
sudo snap install netbeans --classic
Now, I can create HTML5/Javascript projects.
But, how is one supposed to know and why do `apt` and `snap` produce inconsistent versions?
