Your first steps
If you are completely new to WebStorm, read Getting started with WebStorm. The links in this section will lead you to more detailed instructions.
It is also recommended that you read WebStorm Guide and try the Learning Plugin for WebStorm.
If you want to learn about the WebStorm UI, take a guided tour. The Tool Windows and WebStorm Editor parts will tell you everything you need to know to get a grip of these UI elements.
In the Languages and frameworks part, learn how WebStorm helps you create new framework-specific applications or continue with developing already existing ones. Find out what language- and technology-aware coding assistance you can get from WebStorm, and how you can use various auxiliary tools, such as package managers, build tools, or linters without leaving the IDE. The guidelines on this pages are illustrated with numerous language-specific examples, see Refactoring JavaScript, Refactoring TypeScript, React, and others.
If you click Help button in a dialog, you will see the reference page that gives descriptions of its controls and fields.
Finally, the part Getting help tells about using help topics, applying to support service, reporting issues and sharing your feedback.
