Hello everyone,
We've got a big announcement for you today. As of now, IntelliJ IDEA is available
in two editions - IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate (which is the same IntelliJ IDEA
that you all know and love), and IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition. The new
Community Edition has two wonderful new features - first, it's free, and
second, it's open-source.
Of course, it doesn't include all of the Ultimate functionality - but it
does include everything you need for doing core Java and Groovy development.
JUnit and TestNG, Ant and Maven, CVS, Subversion and Git - all these tools
are included in the Community Edition.
All the other functionality - JavaScript and CSS, Java EE, Spring and Hibernate,
support for application servers and commercial version control tools, and
everything else - is only available in the Ultimate edition. The pricing
and upgrade policy of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate remains the same as for IDEA
8. And of course, the EAP program still continues, and we've got a new EAP
build for you today.
