IntelliJ is JetBrains integrated development environment. It is an IDE that is easy to use, works with many programming languages and has many built-in features. While IntelliJ is mainly associated with Java and Kotlin development, it also supports Python, Scala, Groovy, Ruby, Rust, many web languages and more, and also a lot of frameworks.
IntelliJ has two editions, a community and an ultimate edition. The community edition is free to use, but doesn’t contain all the fatures. Also, there are mnay derivates from IntelliJ specifically focused on certain languages, frameworks or workflows. JetBrain’s IDE also has a large ecosystem of plug-ins making the IDE more useful.
