Alternative development environments
Since this topic is all about development, we should also account for some other alternat-
ives that might suit your programming style or your company standards better. So, another
valid alternative is IntelliJ IDEA, which is available at
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/in-
dex.html
.
IntelliJ IDEA is a code-centric IDE focused on developer productivity. The editor exhibits
a nice understanding of your code and makes great suggestions right when you need them
and is always ready to help you shape your code.
Two versions of this product exist—Community edition and Ultimate edition—that require
a license. In order to use Java EE and the WildFly plugin, you need to download the ulti-
mate edition from
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/index.html
and then simply in-
stall it using the installation wizard.
Once you have installed the Ultimate edition, you will be able to get started with develop-
ing applications with WildFly by going to
File

Settings
and choosing the
IDE Settings
option. Here, you can choose to add new application server environments. This is shown in
the following screenshot:
