hhariri··on Increased Subscription Pricing for IDEs, .NET Tools, and the All Products Pack
We support OSS independently of their popularity. If you have had issues with your project being supported (due to maybe some automated checks we've put in place to help us), please feel free to reach out to me with the details. My email is hadi at jetbrains dot com.

Thanks.

I apologise for intervening, but I believe it's necessary as this statement is not correct. We did not layoff a huge portion of our staff.

Thanks for the support Albert, and for the bug reports. I'll follow-up with the team.

Thanks. Will check.

Are these on YouTrack? Under same username as here?
hhariri··on JetBrains Fleet: The Next-Generation IDE by JetBrains
We'll be publishing a blog post with more detailed information soon.
hhariri··on JetBrains Fleet: The Next-Generation IDE by JetBrains
It's based on the JVM (Kotlin) and parts of it with Rust.
hhariri··on JetBrains Fleet: The Next-Generation IDE by JetBrains
IntelliJ IDEA along with the platform is the largest team at JetBrains and we're constantly working on bugs and features. If you can please point me to the issues you're referring to in YouTrack, I can check the status.

I believe this is independent from Social Media connections.
hhariri··on How I fell in love with a programming language
I don't believe our goal was to capture a subset of Scala developers.
hhariri··on How I fell in love with a programming language
We have close to 10 products that are using Kotlin, quite a few of them entirely written in Kotlin. Most new projects we start are using Kotlin. Given we've invested 6 years into Kotlin already and are shipping products with it, I doubt it will become abandonware.
hhariri··on Security update for IntelliJ-based IDEs v2016.1 and older versions
Once again we appreciate your professionalism in this and very grateful for all your help.
hhariri··on Security update for IntelliJ-based IDEs v2016.1 and older versions
There is a workaround for start-up crashes

Please see if that works.

hhariri··on Security update for IntelliJ-based IDEs v2016.1 and older versions
We're sorry.

We've done our best to address the issue, provide the fixes for current versions as well as back-port it up to 3 years for all products running on the platform. In any case we apologise and have learned from this and will improve.

hhariri··on Security update for IntelliJ-based IDEs v2016.1 and older versions
It's used for numerous things, including web development, running and debugging, as well as other uses such as serving docs, etc. Unfortunately right now it's not possible to disable.
hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA and the whole IntelliJ platform migrates to Java 8
Are you asking if IntelliJ IDEA can look like PyCharm? If that's the case, no, it can't. Each IDE is somewhat tailored to the specifics of the framework/language/platform as I mentioned, but the functionality that they provide is available as plugins. For instance with WebStorm you can have node.js, angular.js plugins installed in IntelliJ IDEA and get the same features.

Obviously, IntelliJ IDEA is a polyglot environment so certain things cater to the needs of many platforms and languages, which is why there are some differences in UI, but AFAIK, the core functionality is there.

Having said that, we fully understand that users want to have smaller more focused IDE's based on the specific needs, which is one of the main reasons we started offer the All Products option.

But I do want to stress that the functionality of the different IDE's are via plugins, and that these plugins are available for IntelliJ IDEA, the same day the IDE's are released.

hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA and the whole IntelliJ platform migrates to Java 8
They usually do not lag behind. They are made available as plugins the same day that the IDE is released.
hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA and the whole IntelliJ platform migrates to Java 8
That's actually not correct. The functionality of all IDE's we have (with exception of AppCode and CLion) can be obtained via plugins on IntelliJ IDEA.

The smaller IDE's are focused around the specific platform / functionality.

hhariri··on What RESTful actually means
> "So what do you call a system that uses more than two HTTP methods (e.g. uses PUT and DELETE as well as GET and POST), and has marginally-more-human-readable URLs, but doesn't send self-descriptive representations, doesn't use hypermedia, doesn't Transfer REpresentational State, and probably also isn't stateless?"

What's wrong with calling it an HTTP API?

hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA 15 Released, Adds Kotlin to the Family of Supported JVM Languages
Have you looked at IDEAVim plug-in for IntelliJ?
hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA 15 Released, Adds Kotlin to the Family of Supported JVM Languages
IntelliJ IDEA is $14.9/month for personal license, so not sure I understand your last sentence.
hhariri··on IntelliJ IDEA 15 Released, Adds Kotlin to the Family of Supported JVM Languages
If you're happy with a single IDE then it's fine. However, please note that IntelliJ IDEA does not include CLion, AppCode and of course none of the .NET tools.
hhariri··on Kotlin: A New Hope in a Java 6 Wasteland
Where has JetBrains claimed that Kotlin is going to become irrelevant once Java 8/9 get on Android? Kotlin was and is a multi-purpose language targeting not only Android but other applications and platforms such as server-side, web or even client-side.
hhariri··on Final update on the JetBrains Toolbox announcement
The move to subscription has not been reverted. What's been done is adjustments to address some concerns customers had. And this has been done in response to customer concerns.
hhariri··on Final update on the JetBrains Toolbox announcement
I believe most of the concerns you raise here are addressed in the blog post.
hhariri··on Final update on the JetBrains Toolbox announcement
Given JetBrains has been around for 15+ years, and given that it was a change in the model in moving to subscription, it was aimed to make the transition as smooth as possible for existing customers and that is why they get the 2nd year free.
hhariri··on Final update on the JetBrains Toolbox announcement
You can purchase annual subscriptions also.
hhariri··on How JetBrains Lost Years of Customer Loyalty in Just a Few Hours
We've never had a free option for non-corporate users. We provide free licenses for Students, OSS projects and certain other groups. In addition, we give discounts of 50% for start-ups. All of that will continue.
