About

IntelliJ IDEA Open Edition is a free IDE built on open-source code that provides essential features for Java and Kotlin enthusiasts.

IntelliJ IDEA is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for professional development in Java and Kotlin. It is designed to maximize developer productivity and has a strong focus on privacy and security. It does the routine and repetitive tasks for you by providing clever code completion, static code analysis, and refactorings. It lets you focus on the bright side of software development, making it not only productive but also an enjoyable experience.

The development of modern applications involves using multiple languages, tools, frameworks, and technologies. IntelliJ IDEA is designed as an IDE for JVM languages, but numerous plugins can extend it to provide a polyglot experience.

Use IntelliJ IDEA to develop applications in the following languages that can be compiled into the JVM bytecode, namely: Java, Kotlin, Scala and Groovy
