IntelliJ IDEA is designed for those who use Java and Kotlin in their enterprise, web, mobile backend, and full-stack applications and is used by software developers all over the world.
Integrated development environment (IDE) to help web, mobile and plugins developers and teams of all sizes design, test, debug and manage coding operations for C, C++ and Fortran languages.
It works well with lots of frameworks and debugging capability is very good. Integration with git is very good and makes the code check in process seamless.
Uses a lot of resources. This issue is very annoying and happens very often, which can be really frustrating and damage your developing experience.
It's the best software for everyone who loves to code and doesn't wanna waste time on irrelevant stuff like reminding imports or like that.
It is a known issue that most of the IDEs haven' detailed error messages, maybe they can improve this, sometimes the errors are more frustrating.
I love all jetbrain products and IntelliJ IDEA is one of the best. Excellent software for Java development.
When I shoot a new project, my old projects deteriorate. I need to do the dependency settings again.
Overall experience with IntelliJ IDEA is very good and better than Eclipse. I found it as one of the best IDE for Java development.
A number of the other IDEs on the market are resource heavy and sluggish.
It is a superb IDE which is free, easy, and reliable. This software is a masterpiece and every beginner should start its programming journey from this software.
The style has the same feel as software such as Notepad++ or Delphi 2010. Code suggestion/ completion is really bad, as well as error dialogs.
I am very appreciative of the codeblocks developers for offering such a fantastic platform for me to study and hone my programming abilities.
User interface is very bad, looks old and maybe hard to nevigate.
A very easy to use IdE with a free access makes it the best choice for c/c++ programmers and provide great features that makes the user experience very smooth.
The software can be buggy at times, an its interface is too outdated for the present times. It requires manual setup of GNU compiler, and the window itself can be confusing for a beginner.
It has a super clean UI and easy to use interface. The IDE also comes with a lot of other features like debugger, editor themes, and keymap configurations.
In all the aesthetic, its seems that something is missing, like is just an Word page, I guess its that simple because its no to scary new people, but I didnt like that.
Philip T.: My name is Phil. I'm a writer and I give IntelliJ IDEA 5-stars. I decided to try and learn how to write code for Android applications, so I used IntelliJ IDEA as the environment to do that work. It has absolutely everything on it. It's all in one place. Easy to navigate as well and nice clean interface. It was easy to use. I picked it up really quickly. The Help files could probably be improved for IntelliJ IDEA because it offers so much that you can do. There's a lot that you need to learn. So if you're new to the platform, there's a very steep learning curve.
