WebStorm 5.0: Web Coding with Instant Feedback

Prague (ots/PRNewswire) -

The intelligent JavaScript IDE from JetBrains brings to life the
latest innovations in web development workflow by introducing
easy-to-use live page editing, and supports more top-notch
technologies and coding techniques

JetBrains, the creators of IntelliJ IDEA, ReSharper and other
intelligent, productivity-enhancing tools for software developers,
have announced the general availability of WebStorm 5.0, the major
new version of its innovative JavaScript IDE.

To meet the always-growing user expectations, WebStorm 5.0
re-evaluates web developer productivity once again. Along with many
smaller additions that make routine coding even more efficient, it
introduces 'Live Edit' mode. On every change of HTML, JS or CSS code
in the IDE, the browser page is intelligently updated (currently
works with Google Chrome), even as you go through options in
completion lists. Live Edit saves a lot of time on window-switching
and helps you stay fully focused on the code.

"As it often happens with innovations, the idea is in the air,
it's just a matter of good implementation. We think that with Live
Edit we've found a simple yet significant way to help web developers
gain in coding productivity with no additional effort," said Alexey
Gopachenko, WebStorm project lead. "WebStorm 5.0 also takes further
our Prevent bugs initiative and extends its JavaScript unit testing
abilities. You know, best practices are even better when they are
easy to follow."

Additional key features of WebStorm 5.0 include:

- Further improvements in JavaScript testing with JSTestDriver, plus the
ability to debug unit tests
- Support for working with Jade templates
- Enhanced JavaScript editing and code completion performance
- Reworked CSS/LESS/Sass/SCSS editing with lots of additions and fixes
- New FTPS support in deployment routines
