IntelliJ IDEA is a commercial Java IDE by the company JetBrains.
The first version of IntelliJ IDEA appeared in January, 2001 and quickly became very popular, as the first Java IDE with a set of integrated refactoring tools[1] that allow programmers to quickly redesign their code. IntelliJ IDEA’s design is centered on programmer productivity. A number of its features are intended to accelerate development and allow programmers to concentrate on functionality while IntelliJ IDEA handles more mundane coding tasks.[citation needed]
Starting with version 6, IntelliJ IDEA offers an integrated form design as part of their default plugins.
Among other features, IntelliJ IDEA provides close integration with popular open source development tools such as CVS, Subversion, Apache Ant and JUnit. In February 2007, IntelliJ developers announced an early version of a plugin for Ruby [2].
