Is there a way to perform autosave in netbeans 8?

Question

I wonder if there is a way to tell to the IDE to autosave any file if modified. I've searched the web but I haven't find anything. There was a module on NetBeans 7 but it is not available now on NB 8. Anyway it appears that the old plugin can be set to execute save all on a given interval. What I want is a feature to save when you modify something just like in Intellij IDEA.

Thanks

This plugin also saves when the file loses focus: Plugin

I would also prefer something like IntelliJ's Android Studio, but I don't think it exists for Netbeans.

I downloaded the below netbeans plugin. It will automatically save after every 1 second once installed. it was built for Netbeans 8.1 and not tested for the version 8.2 but it worked for me.

Install in Netbeans via Tools > Plugins > Downloaded and click on add "Add plugins..." button
