JetBrains (formerly IntelliJ) is a software development company whose tools are targeted towards software developers and project managers.[1][2]
As of 2015[update], the company has over 500[3] employees in its five offices:[4] in Prague, Saint Petersburg,[5] Moscow, Munich, and Boston.[6]
The company offers an extended family of integrated development environments (IDEs) for the programming languages Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, SQL, Objective-C, C++, and JavaScript.
In 2011 the company entered a new area by introducing Kotlin, a programming language that runs in a Java virtual machine (JVM).
InfoWorld magazine awarded the firm "Technology of the Year Award" in 2015 and 2011.[7][8]
History
JetBrains, initially called IntelliJ,[9] was founded in 2000 in Prague by three software developers:[10] Sergey Dmitriev, Valentin Kipiatkov and Eugene Belyaev.[11]
The company's first product was IntelliJ Renamer, a tool for code refactoring in Java.[2]
In 2012, after having been the company's CEO for 12 years, Sergey Dmitriev entrusted the company to two newly appointed CEOs, Oleg Stepanov and Maxim Shafirov, and devoted himself to his scientific endeavors in the field of bioinformatics.[12][13]
Products
The company offers an extended family of integrated development environments (IDEs) for the programming languages Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, Objective-C, C++, and JavaScript.[14]
JetBrains are also the makers of tools for .NET Framework developers, including ReSharper, dotTrace, dotMemory, dotCover and dotPeek, plus team development tools: TeamCity for continuous integration and build management, YouTrack for issue tracking and Upsource for code review.[15][16]
In 2011 the company entered a new area by introducing Kotlin, a new Java virtual machine (JVM) programming language.[14]
AppCode
AppCode is an IDE primarily targeting development for Apple platforms like macOS, iOS, watchOS and tvOS. It supports programming in C, C++, Objective-C and Swift. Unlike most JetBrains which are cross-platform AppCode is only available for macOS.
CLion
CLion (pronounced "sea lion") is a cross-platform C and C++ IDE for Linux, OS X, and Windows integrated with the CMake build system.[17][18] The initial version will support the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and Clang compilers and GDB debugger, with JetBrains hoping to support LLDB and Google Test in the future.[19] Forrester Research analyst Michael Facemire expressed doubts about the product's potential.[19]
DataGrip
DataGrip is a cross-platform IDE that is aimed at DBAs and developers working with SQL databases. It has built-in drivers that support DB2, Derby, H2, HSQLDB, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Sqlite and Sybase.
IntelliJ IDEA
IntelliJ IDEA was JetBrain's first IDE. It is cross-platform and is primarily aimed at Java, Java EE and web development. An open-source version is available under the name IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition, and a proprietary version as IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition. IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition can be made to include the feature set of PhpStorm, PyCharm and RubyMine via plugins.
PhpStorm
PhpStorm is a cross-platform IDE for PHP and web development. It supports PHP 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 and 7.0.[20]
PyCharm
PyCharm is a cross-platform IDE that is primarily targeted for Python and web development. An open source version is available as PyCharm Community Edition, and a proprietary version as PyCharm Professional Edition.[21] A special version called PyCharm Edu is based on PyCharm aimed specifically at learning programming with Python.[22]
Rider
Rider is an upcoming cross-platform IDE intended for C# and .NET development that is currently in preview.[23]
RubyMine
RubyMine is a cross-platform IDE that supports Ruby, Ruby on Rails and web development.
WebStorm
WebStorm is a cross-platform IDE primarily for web, JavaScript and TypeScript development. Many of JetBrain's other IDEs include the feature set of WebStorm via plugins.
Revenue model
JetBrains IDEs have several license options, which feature same software abilities and differ in their price and terms of use. The team products are available as hosted and installed versions and have free versions for small teams.[24][25] All products are free for open source projects and educational institutions.[26]
IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate is one of the only paid products in a field of free or open source options.[8][27][28]
Open source projects
In 2009, JetBrains open-sourced the core functionality of IntelliJ IDEA by offering the free Community Edition.[26][29] It is built on the IntelliJ Platform and includes its sources. JetBrains released both under Apache License 2.0.[30] In 2010, Android support became a part of the Community Edition,[31] and two years later Google announced[32] its Android Studio, the IDE for mobile development on Android platform built on the Community Edition of IntelliJ IDEA and an official alternative to Eclipse Android Developer Tool.[33] In June 2015, it was announced that the support of Eclipse ADT will be discontinued making the Android Studio the official tool for Android App development.[34]
MPS, short for meta programming system, and Kotlin, a statically typed programming language for JVM, are both open source and non-commercial.[35][36]
Past projects
Fabrique, a rapid application development (RAD) software framework for building custom Web and enterprise applications.[37] Introduced in 2004,[37] apparently dead since 2008.
Omea, a desktop-based reader and organizer for RSS (and later of every bit of information that comes across one’s desktop),[38] the first[39] and so far the only consumer-oriented product from JetBrains. Introduced in 2004, it failed to gain expected popularity.[38] In 2008, having reached v 2.2, Omea was open-sourced under the GNU General Public License (GPL) v2.[40] The product is still available for download, and after the retirement[41] of Google Reader, has gained some attention again.[38][42]
Astella, an IDE for Adobe Flash and Apache Flex. This most short-lived JetBrains product was announced in October 2011,[43] just a month before Adobe Systems killed Mobile Flash.[44]
