IntelliJ Idea Goes LSP: Java and Kotlin Intelligence Comes to VS Code, Cursor
7 hours ago
- IntelliJ IDEA now offers its Java and Kotlin intelligence as an LSP server, available in a preview extension for VS Code and its forks like Cursor.
- The extension provides smart code completion, navigation, analysis, refactorings, and support for Maven, Gradle, and Bazel.
- During the preview phase, the extension is free to use with a 30-day evaluation period per build; after preview, an IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate subscription is required.
- JetBrains is also working on supporting terminal-based agentic workflows, aiming to reduce token consumption and improve development efficiency.
