Play Framework 2.0

1. Create play application with project wizard

Open Project Wizard and select Play 2 in Scala section. Specify home directory with Play 2.0 installed. If you don't have it, you can get it via Download button.

The IDE will create an empty application.

2. Check project settings

To make sure the project libraries set up correctly, open File → Project Structure and check if module dependencies are resolved without warnings.

Since we use Scala for our application, ensure also that Compiler library is set in Scala facet settings.

3. Compile play application

Since at the moment IntelliJ IDEA relies on the compiled code, you have to manually call Make Project to enable code assistance.

5. Use code assistance features

When everything is set up you can use code completion, navigation and on-the-fly code analysis features in your Play files.
