01.10.2012 Visual Studio Magazine 2012 Readers Choice Winners
Visual Studio extension ReSharper is the code-coverage utility of choice for VSM readers, taking gold in the General Development Tools category again this year, and maintaining its ranking as the top vote-getter in the Readers Choice Awards. Long considered a valuable inspection and refactoring tool, it's probably hard to find .NET developers without it.

13.08.2012 PhpStorm — Review and Give Away
PHPStorm's intellisense is mind-blowing. The aforementioned autocomplete across classes in a project is great, and the autocomplete on the selection of IDE commands is a great idea, but it offers intellisense for JavaScript, HTML, and CSS as well. No other IDE has fulfilled the need for this so completely.

28.07.2012 Editorial Review of WebStorm
WebStorm solves a problem that many Web developers don't know they have—but once you give it a chance, you may never look back. It may even get you started on your first serious project. At $49 for a personal developer license, this app offers excellent value for money.

24.07.2012 Jolt Productivity Award: JetBrains dotTrace 5.1
JetBrains, the company that made its stripes with the high-end Java IDE, has long been a well-respected player in the .NET programming space on the strength of its ReSharper product. Its dotTrace performance and memory profiler might not be as well known, but it is certainly the best app profiler for .NET development. What distinguishes dotTrace 5.1 is its ease of use. It is a plugin that runs directly from Visual Studio and can run against any .NET binaries, including those on a remote machine. It offers data in a single snapshot or over many long runs to get the full application memory and performance profile. The resulting data is presented in a variety of useful formats that invite drilling down to see where the bottlenecks are occurring. You can drill down to a specific line of code, if you wish. Another feature captures program execution tracing so that you can see every function as it was called, what it called in turn, and who called it. This new version adds the ability to decompile code in the profiler when you discover a hotspot in a library for which you don't have the code. You can see the decompiled code and get some idea of which function is the culprit. This release has also shifted to monitoring remote machines via HTTP, rather than the earlier proprietary protocol. This step greatly simplifies set up and facilitates performance profiling of Web applications. This product will continue to solidify JetBrain's reputation as the top designer of code-level tools for developers.

14.02.2012 The JVM As Language Farm Club
Kotlin, which is presented in depth in our Language of the Month feature, is designed by JetBrains, which is unarguably the company with the finest reputation for programming tools. Its IntelliJ IDEA, ReSharper, and RubyMine IDEs are all top of the line products. Many of them, especially the first two, elicit feelings of deep affection and admiration from their users. As a long time IntelliJ IDEA user myself, I share those feelings of admiration and occasionally delight.
The fast compilation and runtime plus the superior tooling JetBrains will deliver move Kotlin to the top of my list of JVM languages.

14.02.2012 High-level JVM/JavaScript language Kotlin gets open-sourced
Kotlin aims to remove some common pitfalls of Java, including null pointer exceptions, while adding features such as higher-order functions, mixins and pattern matching. A handy comparison page details the similarities and differences between Kotlin and the the popular Java-compatible language Scala, key improvements being simplicity of syntax and compile-time.

02.02.2012 IntelliJ IDEA 11 — What is New

20.01.2012 Language of the Month: Kotlin
The JetBrains team releases a JVM language that compiles and runs as fast as Java. It adds a multitude of new features, many of which are coated with syntactical sugar and pixie dust borrowed from Groovy and Scala.

19.01.2012 Review of IntelliJ IDEA: Commercial Java development tool or Eclipse?
The trade-off is that while Eclipse wins easily on the number of plug-ins available, IDEA has the cleaner and more cohesive design that you would expect from a tool created by a single supplier, and less chance of encountering the dependency hell that Eclipse can sometimes create.
"It's hard to put my finger on it, but the exact same functionality in IntelliJ feels more streamlined and easier to use than in Eclipse – enough that I would pay for it even though there is a full-featured free IDE available," writes one software engineer on programming forum Stackoverflow.

18.01.2012 PhpStorm 3.0, nuove feature per lo sviluppo PHP

13.01.2012 Editorial Review of PhpStorm
This happens to me all the time: I am watching a movie, and the camera zooms in on a computer monitor showing the hero performing some impossible feat of tech wizardry. I find myself thinking, "Come on, things are never this slick in real life." Well, if a movie showed PhpStorm, I would probably be thinking that exact same thought.
