In this interview, we speak with Jakub Chrzanowski (@hsz @hszanowski), the author of the .ignore plugin for the IntelliJ-based IDEs. This plugin lets you mark matched .ignore files in project view, assists with editing them, and helps you generate ignore rules using templates. Welcome, Jakub! Before we get started, could you please tell us a bit about yourself and your background? I started my development journey in primary school with Pascal. I had strong support from my teacher and his code listings from a dot-matrix printer. That was a very exciting beginning for a young fellow and someti

GitHub helps teams collaborate around code and work together, and JetBrains IDEs help keep GitHub versioning working productively without switching contexts. Our IDEs also put a pretty face on sometimes cryptic Git commands while preserving the power of high-end versioning productivity. GitHub is hosting a webinar with JetBrains Developer Advocate Paul Everitt on Monday, December 11th to show GitHub and IntelliJ Platform IDEs working together to make collaboration around source code easier. The webinar will give a brief introduction to the “GitHub Flow” of branch-based, pull-request develop

The basic idea was to have some fun and build something viable from scratch in a short time frame. Over the designated 48 hours of the Hackathon, 57 participants worked feverishly on 21 projects; eating, talking and dreaming code. Let’s get right to the meat and potatoes and tell you about this year's projects. (more…)
