IntelliJ IDEA has enhanced its open-source initiative by simplifying the process for developers to build and contribute to its codebase, which has been publicly accessible for over 15 years. Using GitHub Actions, the integration of CI/CD pipelines enables users to easily build their own versions of IntelliJ IDEA directly from the source code, bypassing the need for complex build environment setups. Open-source builds are now available on GitHub for those who prefer not to modify the code, allowing immediate access to a pure version of the IDE. Developers are encouraged to fork the repository, make changes, and utilize preconfigured pipelines to test and run their builds. This initiative not only supports the development of IntelliJ IDEA but also underpins other tools like Android Studio and Adobe AEM Developer Tools, fostering a collaborative environment for developers to contribute and grow within the IntelliJ community.
