CLion 2024.2 Beta adds support for remote development via SSH using JetBrains Gateway when the new ReSharper C++ language engine (also known as CLion Nova) is enabled. 

• To try the new language engine, go to Settings / Preferences | Advanced Settings | CLion | Use the ReSharper C++ language engine (CLion Nova).
• To open a new project on a remote server, go to File | Remote Development… or launch JetBrains Gateway and click New Connection under the SSH connection provider.

Code With Me for collaborative development is also available as Beta functionality when the new language engine is enabled.

You can enable Code With Me support through the Tools menu or by using Search Everywhere (Double Shift) to call the Enable Code With Me action.

A variety of other features and fixes have been added over the course of the 2024.2 EAP for use with the ReSharper C++ language engine:

• Full line code completion for C++
• Support for optional semantic highlighting
• JetBrains Grazie support
• Updated Features Trainer
• Reduction in the amount of red code

• Reloading of CMake projects with multiple files when using a remote toolchain now takes much less time (CPP-14984).

The debugger has received a number of fixes, as well:
