JetBrains Gateway is also bundled as a plugin with a number of JetBrains IDEs. Since it’s standalone, it’s the only thing you need to install locally to start working and is ideal for less powerful laptops and in cases where a full IDE install isn’t desired. This whole process is managed by JetBrains Gateway, a new, compact, standalone app that provides everything you need to get started with remote development. A thin client runs locally, connects to the IDE backend and provides a full, rich UI, while all the processing happens remotely. The IDE is installed as a backend service on the remote machine, where it will load the project without displaying a user interface. JetBrains remote development will connect to a server via SSH.

A local thin client, based on the familiar IntelliJ Platform, provides a rich, full featured UI for editing, building, running, testing, debugging, and more.Įverything you need for working on your code can live remotely on a physical server or a virtual machine, giving you clean, reproducible development environments, the power of a server machine, and the ability to work from anywhere. This means you can host your source code, toolchains, and an IntelliJ-based IDE running as a service on a remote server. Recently we announced support for remote development in JetBrains IDEs.
