In the first episode, we talked about some valuable resources for planning, developing, and deploying plugins with the IntelliJ Platform SDK and the IntelliJ Platform Plugin Template. We also covered some of the free and paid plugins available and how to customize your plugin page in the Marketplace and many more topics.<\/p>\n Watch the recording: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-6D5-xEaYig<\/a>.<\/p>\n This is our series where we share our experience of updating and aligning outdated plugins with the latest IntelliJ Platform SDK and JetBrains Marketplace Guidelines<\/a>. We\u2019ve covered two plugins so far, describing the process of revamping already existing products available in the Marketplace to make them better from both the development and the marketing perspectives:<\/p>\n JetBrains Marketplace recently got yet another new feature \u2013 Plugin Ideas<\/a> \u2013 where you can navigate using, again, the Resources header menu on the Marketplace page. It\u2019s a place for sharing ideas for plugins and functionality missing from IntelliJ-based IDEs \u2013 describe the concept, cast your vote, or use the ideas in your own concepts for building something very new! For more details and some backstory, check out the dedicated blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n IntelliJ Platform Plugin Template<\/a> is a Github repository that provides a pure boilerplate template to speed up the setup phase of plugin development for both new and experienced developers. In the project\u2019s README file, you\u2019ll find out which parts we\u2019ve covered for you.<\/p>\n The latest releases introduced Dependabot integration, tweaks (such as compatibility with macOS Big Sur), and a dependencies upgrade. Watch the repository to stay up-to-date with our recommended configuration!<\/p>\n Among all the changes in the IntelliJ Platform Plugin SDK documentation, we want to highlight two new articles here:<\/p>\n The design team has released the IntelliJ Platform Figma UI Kit, which will help you design the plugin interface using the Figma application:<\/p>\n We\u2019re constantly working to improve our tooling around plugin development. After the release of Gradle 7.0, we\u2019ve provided some compatibility changes, as well as changes related to the Bintray sunsetting and regular features and bug fixes:<\/p>\n![\"IntelliJ](\"https:\/\/blog.jetbrains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/800_DSGN-10238_IntelliJExplorer1607069924478-2.png\")
