If you learned to code using a text editor to understand the fundamentals , you may have missed the value an IDE can bring. As professional developers, we don’t need to learn the fundamentals; we need to deliver working applications. An IDE is designed specifically to help us to do this. IntelliJ IDEA is packed with features that can help developers with almost any task they need to perform. When you’re busy writing code, you don’t always have time to discover those features. Getting to Know IntelliJ IDEA uses two approaches to help newcomers and experienced users alike: Tutorials that help you to consolidate your skills by showing you when , why and how to use IntelliJ IDEA features to create working applications. A questions-and-answers approach that demonstrates how to solve the problems that professional developers face. Seeing how to use IntelliJ IDEA from these different angles shows the most useful features and teaches multiple approaches for using these features. This book is full of ah-ha! moments that you can incorporate into your daily routine to help you go faster and to show off to your colleagues. No matter which technologies you use or how you like to work, reading this book will help you find an approach that enables you to work efficiently and productively with IntelliJ IDEA. Review: A useful statr - Generally I like the "Getting to Know IntelliJ IDEA" book; it is a decently thorough tour of likely the best Java IDE currently in existence. I would recommend any serious Java/Kotlin developer to read this book. Why not five stars? I still have the feeling that in the vastness of IntelliJ, there are likely quite some features and settings that may have been relevant to include in the book, even if in shortened form. The second reason is that there is still a gap between knowing some options and shortcuts and actually using them; as a reader it is of course my responsibility to apply new knowledge, but as a former teacher I have the feeling that in some way there could have been exercises, challenges or tutorials/case studies to help get the skills "into the fingers", so to speak. That being said, I do think every IntelliJ-using developer should read this as a basis. So a recommended buy.
