Grab the new build here and start playing with the Play! framework. Here you’ll find a few related screencasts. The new build also has significant changes in PostgreSQL syntax support.
The new build also includes the first step of a visual redesign of the UI (starting from the navigation bar).
Please download the new build, check out the complete release notes and send us feedback through the issue tracker.

Just great news about Play! Downloading it to try right now!
That is just awesome news. I love Play! and having it supported by IDEA 11 is great!
This is great! It took an extra step for me to get it working. When I go to Tools -> Play with Playframework and then try to set the location of Play, I get:
/home/jamesw/play-1.2.3/play.sh does not exist
If I symlink play.sh to play then the play console works.
I’ll submit an issue.

Nice!!!
I find navigation bar is quite useless for me. Hopefully re-designed version will be as easy to disable as the current one.
Oh yeah! Love you guys
great news, I’ll give it a try as soon as possible…
Need to revert to previous build because this build cannot open my Android project
There doesn’t seem to be a Scala plugin for this build. Is that a known issue?
Play! framework support? I love you!!!
will play support be available also on the community edition?
opensas,
No. Play Framework, like all other Web frameworks supported by IntelliJ IDEA, will only be available in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.
I just posted a short video that shows how to get a Play app setup in IntelliJ:
