This post is part of a series of posts covering features in WebStorm 9 EAP: WebStorm EAP is open! Live Edit updates in WebStorm 9 - What's new? JavaScript Postfix Completion Spy-js, our "secret agent", has done a great job at tracing, debugging and profiling front-end JavaScript code. With WebStorm 9 EAP, we're expanding its job: there is no back-end Node.js code our 007 can't infiltrate. As a refresher, spy-js was introduced with WebStorm 8. It allows tracing our code without resorting to console.log, debugging it without breakpoints and profiling it without any specialized too

WebStorm comes with many powerful tools to assure the high quality of your code base. Dozens of built-in inspections are enabled by default. These static code analysis tools help you find probable bugs, detect performance issues and improve the overall code structure right as you write the code. You can also use the integrated code quality tools: JSHint or JSLint. Inspections are available for all languages supported by WebStorm, including JavaScript, Node.js, HTML, CSS, Less, Sass, TypeScript, CoffeeScript and Dart. Built-in inspections help you detect errors and potential problems,

The recording of our May 29th webinar with Maarten Balliauw and Mikhail Vink, PhpStorm Best Practices - The Perfect Workflow for PHP Developers, is now available on JetBrains.tv and YouTube. In this webinar, we look at the most important everyday actions in PhpStorm IDE. Learn how to navigate between files, classes or other elements in our project, and see how we can use code autocompletion, PHPDoc, intentions and live templates to make our life as developers easier. About this webinar: Using automatic inspections and quick fixes, PhpStorm can greatly improve code quality. We’ll g

Join us Wednesday, May 29th at 17:00 GMT for a free webinar, PhpStorm Best Practices - The Perfect Workflow for PHP Developers with Maarten Balliauw. In this webinar, we'll look at the most important everyday actions in PhpStorm IDE. We'll learn how to navigate between files, classes or other elements in our project, and see how we can use code autocompletion, PHPDoc, intentions and live templates to make our life as developers easier. Using automatic inspections and quick fixes, PhpStorm can greatly improve code quality. We'll get an insight on how to efficiently use version control sys

Moving code around is an essential part of application design and maintenance, but it may become a tedious task in modern code utilising namespaces and the PSR0 file layout convention. Move Class refactoring is a reliable tool that will remove the burden of maintaining project consistency and allow you to use move as a simple atomic action, allowing you to keep your focus on the design decisions, that is especially important as a part of complex high-level refactorings.

The easiest way to enhance code readability is to standardize its organization. For example, you can specify methods to be ordered after fields or keep dependent methods together. The good news is that starting with version 6, you can have your code rearranged automatically! All code generated by PhpStorm will follow these rules, so you don't have to worry about it at every turn. (more…)
