You don't have to if you're an IntelliJ Ultimate subscriber, it has all IDEs in it.
- generic_user 10y agoI would much rather see them sell a basic editor that you could buy specific language upgrades for as you need them.
- KallDrexx 10y agoI was under the impression that the IntelliJ ultimate plugins lagged behind the specific IDE implementations.
- smacktoward 10y agoThey also offer an "All Products" subscription that lets you use all their various IDEs separately, if you prefer that approach.
- KallDrexx 10y agoRight and I have that, but it would be nice to just use IntelliJ Ultimate without sacrificing features in Rider, Webstorm, etc...
- geoelectric 10y agoI'd try the plugins then. I like the separate IDEs because they tend to optimize workflows for the language in question without any extra JVM-configuration cruft, but the plugins really do replicate 99% of the functionality. For the other 1% (or if the plugin is lagging behind some killer feature release for a week or two) fall back on the separate IDE.
- KallDrexx 10y agoI definitely don't need that 1% usually, a long long time ago I thought I read they were massively (like months) behind the plugins, so it's good to know that's not the case.
- geoelectric 10y agoI think there were a few releases where the lag was bigger, particularly in the early days of PyCharm. My take is as the IDEs have matured it's shrunk considerably.
- konart 10y agoNot really. The plugins are update almost at the same time as their native IDE products. Maybe a week of a difference.
- dantiberian 10y agoSometimes, but not always.
- realharo 10y agoThere is no CLion plugin for IDEA (yet).
