I love and hate Eclipse/STS, but I don't think I will ever switch to IDEA, I love my freedom more. The least I can do for open source community is to use open source products and report bugs.

If you are a professional, why not use a professional tool?

Since there seem to be some IntelliJ folks here, I'd like to bring up my pet peeve: please take advantage of modern, gigantic _wide_ monitors. It makes no sense for code to be in a single column on the left of the monitor while 2/3 of the right side is almost completely empty space. Instead of just allowing vertical scrolling, why not allow multiple columns and horizontal scrolling? This will result in the ability to…

You seem to be suggesting that professional coders don't use open source tools or that open source tools aren't professional?

Go right ahead https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community

But their community versions are not usable for web development.

I use Visual Studio and IntelliJ IDEA for C# and Java development, respectively. I cannot fathom a scenario in which I would need an IDE for web development. Perhaps heavy PHP development would benefit from JetBrains PhpStorm IDE, a free version of which is available for open source projects.

From what I understand, starting with V13 personal licenses will include 1 year free upgrades. I thought V12 licenses younger than 1 year will work with V13, but that's not the case. I like the IDE, but I will stick with v12 for now.

1 year of updates not upgrades . Otherwise you'd only "need" to buy an upgrade every other year.

In the article linked it says "Both personal and commercial licenses now include 1-year upgrade subscription. For more information on the new pricing and licensing options for IntelliJ IDEA, please visit ..."

What do you miss most in AppCode from your XCode experience?

In no particular order (and I just downloaded 2.5 to check stuff so I wouldn't waste your time): - Counterparts. If it's there I can't find it. (Bonus points if it can do what Counterparts can't: jump-to-definition in the right pane puts the appropriate header in the left pane.) - Xcode-style back/forward buttons. Coupled with Counterparts, this is really flexible and pleasant to use. I'm familiar with ctrl-tab switc…

Thanks @eropple for the effort to download and provide feedback. Much appreciated.

So I've never really understood how the products are differentiated from each other. If I bought Intellij IDEA, does that mean I can download free plugins to get the same functionality as PyCharm? Does PyCharm support Javascript? If I want to do Django and Javascript, do I need to buy IDEA?

IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate brings you nearly all the feature that are available in the other version. PyCharm, WebStorm and others are cheaper but more focused on a single language.

I'm still looking forward to the 'Sublime Text'-like column mode selection feature[1], currently the top voted feature request, which will be an excellent addition to IntelliJ. Unfortunately it looks like we'll have to wait until version 14 for this. [1] - http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-80056

we know about this request and understand it's importance. however it can't be done quickly as there are some things to change in the core of the editor. i hope to see it in 14 or even early nobody can tell in advance. will keep posted. i'm sure it will be implemented

with jetbrains folks in here it would be nice to get a comment from them on this. Even just something that says its not coming would be better than no response at all. I love intellij, but sublime multi cursors would be a huge performance improvement. Right now I keep idea, sublime and notepad++ open most of the day.

please find my comment above

I guess most used part would be an integrated tomcat server that I could start and stop within IDE, other web development features would be to work well with popular frameworks like spring...
