Designing an IDE from the ground up for remote development makes sense given the interest in this way of working JetBrains said it has advantages for security as well as simplifying the setup of developer PCs. Rough edges are expected with an early preview, and on the plus side the minimalist design is ideal for developers who want to focus on their code. New Relic guzzles down CodeStream to help devs jump straight from app error telemetry to offending code.All change at JetBrains: Remote development now, new IDE previewed.Can Rust save the planet? Why, and why not.All your database are belong to us: AWS wants every data silo on its platform.Language support is currently Java, Kotlin, Python, Go, JavaScript, Rust and JSON, with PHP, C++, C# and HTML billed as "coming soon." Some important features are missing, not least the ability to extend Fleet with plugins. We also got errors with common tasks like initializing a Git repository, or recognizing a Git repository that had already been initialized. We suffered long pauses, such as delays opening Fleet, FSDaemon getting carried away and consuming 100 per cent CPU, and difficulty opening new workspaces it was better behaved on macOS.įleet does seem to spend a lot of time updating indexes.
This Fleet Actions panel feels similar to the command palette in VS Codeīased on our experience with the preview, Fleet is still somewhat rough to work with, particularly on Windows.
Once done, Fleet becomes a full IDE though retaining its minimalist design. This is true and Fleet does no end of downloading dependencies and indexing the first time the button is clicked, presuming there is some code to analyse. The documentation warns that "After you click the Enable button you may have to wait some time, while the backend is prepared". Functionality like refactoring and code parsing is disabled.Ĭlicking a Smart Mode button at top right of the title bar then gives the developer the option to enable "completion, error detection, fixes and refactorings." Once done, it is possible to create and edit files but little else.
Nothing much is possible until a workspace is opened, in effect a project folder. On first start-up it is little more than a white empty window with some controls embedded in the title bar. The best single word to describe Fleet is "minimalist". Fleet is significant because it is a new base IDE from JetBrains that may eventually replace IntelliJ, used as the core of numerous IDEs including Google's Android Studio, though there are no plans yet to discontinue IntelliJ and Fleet is in early preview.
