Here are some commons questions from the webinar Q&A session:
Q: How can I enable Angular 2 support in IntelliJ IDEA, PhpStorm, PyCharm or RubyMine?
A: Angular 2 support is provided by the AngularJS plugin developed by JetBrains. You can install it in Preferences – Plugins. This plugin provides the same functionality related to Angular support you may find in WebStorm.
Q: What’s the best way now to create a new Angular 2 project?
A: It’s recommended to use Angular CLI. At the moment you can try the integration with Angular CLI in WebStorm 2016.2 Early access preview – you can create new Angular 2 projects right from the IDE Welcome screen. There’s also the Angular 2 seed project on Github that shows how to use Angular 2 with Webpack.

A: The changes introduced in Angular 2 Release Candidate are now supported in WebStorm 2016.1.3, that you can download on the product website.
