Our first major update this year, 2021.1, brings many exciting features and solves quite a few troubling issues in the JetBrains Toolbox tools, which are available all together with an All Products Pack subscription.

Here are the across-the-board highlights of the 2021.1 release that many in the community have been waiting for.

JetBrains Space integration

Now it’s finally possible to connect your organization to Space, allowing you to view and clone project repositories, review your teammates’ code, and write Space Automation scripts without leaving your IDE. The Space plugin is now embedded in IntelliJ IDEA 2021.1. For other IDEs, you can install the Space plugin manually. Give it a try!

Collaborative development

Code With Me now comes bundled with JetBrains desktop tools.* Use the 2021.1 version of your favorite tool to take your remote collaboration to the next level with video and voice calls. Enjoy a feature-rich remote collaborative environment by talking one-on-one or organizing group sessions with dozens of participants.

*Please note Code With Me is not yet available in Rider and DataGrip, but we’re working on this.

Built-in HTML preview

We’ve introduced a built-in HTML preview that updates on the fly while you are making changes in HTML or the linked CSS and JavaScript files. You can now preview static HTML files right in your IDE!

See below a short summary of the specific updates in each tool, and update your tools with the Toolbox App or from the tool itself to give the new features a try.
