Useful Plugins

You can read JetBrains documentation on how to install and enable plugins for IntelliJ.

Some useful plugins are:

  • google-java-format

  • Maven Helper

  • AsciiDoc

  • Markdown support

  • SonarLint

  • Error-prone Compiler Integration fixes the 

    Error:java: invalid flag: -Xep:JUnit4TestNotRun:WARN

     message when running unit tests in IntelliJ.

 

It is recommended to use the IntelliJ plugins function to install. This keeps the plugin up to date.

 

Memory Usage

  1. Add the memory indicator to the status bar.

  2. Increase the memory available to InteliJ's JVM. Recommended 4G.

  3. Increase the memory available for mvn import.
