What framework does Jetbrains use for all their tools? They honestly look and perform great on every platform that I have used them on.

- stevoski 9y agoJava Swing, with lots of manual tiny tweaks for fidelity.
- jm547ster 9y agoWow I had no idea, assumed it was JavaFX, it has a much nicer feel to it than the other 2 IDEs. Has Swing remained the same or has the API been overhauled since idk, SE6-ish around last I perused? NetBeans certainly has had a nice bit of a facelift last I saw of it. Eclipse I won’t say too much, looks like their splash screen is the only thing has had much of an overhaul.
- pjmlp 9y agoJust tiny improvements, mostly bug fixes. The secret is to read "Filthy Rich Clients" and "Tricks of Swing Gurus", where most of those programming knobs were described.
- ComputerGuru 9y ago"great" is subjective, my preference is for "native" and then you only have to decide what you think/feel looks good just once. JetBrains doesn't look native.
