A fresh WebStorm 12 EAP build (144.3357) is now available for download!

As always, you can download it here or, if you have a previous EAP build (144.3143) installed, you should soon get a notification in the IDE about a patch update.

The highlights of this update include:

    arrow-functions-debug
  • Support for debugging Node.js apps built with Webpack
  • Simplified configuration for debugging client-side JavaScript code built with Webpack that doesn’t require path mappings (only when using a WebStorm built-in web server, otherwise please follow our tutorial)
  • Extract field refactoring in TypeScript
    extract-field
  • Support for comments in tsconfig.json (that’s a new feature in TypeScript 1.8)
