GWT Studio

What is that

GWT Studio is plugin for IntelliJ targeted to simplify development of applications using Google Web Toolkit

GWT Studio provides useful

  • actions to create different elements of GWT application
  • GWT specific inspections with quick fixes
  • specific run configuration for starting and debugging GWT application from IntelliJ IDEA
  • integration of GWT compiler in to IntelliJ IDEA build process
  • some refactorings

GWT Studio roadmap includes

  • GWT native methods support. Meaning ability to edit JavaScript embedded in to native method with all syntax highlighting, code completion etc. as usual JavaScript in IntelliJ IDEA
  • Integration with HTML stuff. It's needed to reference some GWT resource (e.g. modules) from HTML files. We can support completion & validation.
  • Much more inspections with quick-fixes and intentions
  • maybe even Visual Designer

Current version of GWT Studio is 0.1.1 It supports only EAP builds of IntelliJ IDEA 6.0 (Demetra) starting from build #5333

GWT Studio still to be on earlier research stage. It is not part of any JetBrains product. Most probably it will be changed in the foreseen future.
