About:
IntelliJ IDEA EAP provides early access to upcoming features of the flagship Java IDE, allowing developers to test and provide feedback on new capabilities before general release. It includes the latest advancements in code intelligence, framework support, and developer tooling. While highly capable, EAP builds may be less stable than official releases.
|
Key Features:
- Early access to cutting-edge IDE features
- Advanced code analysis and refactoring
- Deep framework integration (Spring, Micronaut, Quarkus)
- Built-in AI assistant capabilities
- Enhanced debugger and profiler tools
|
Use Cases:
- Testing upcoming IDE features before production release
- Developing enterprise Java/Kotlin applications
- Providing feedback to JetBrains on new functionality
|
Alternatives:
-
IntelliJ IDEA Community
– Stable, free version with core features; lacks EAP's latest experimental capabilities
-
Visual Studio Code
– Lightweight, extensible editor; less comprehensive Java/Kotlin refactoring and analysis
-
Eclipse
– Open-source IDE; different plugin ecosystem and UI paradigm
