A new way to run the current file

WebStorm allows you to run, debug, and test your code, among other things. To do so, it uses the concept of run configurations. As this concept can still be confusing for new users, we introduced a more straightforward way to get started with running and debugging your code.

You can now find a new Current File option on the toolbar. With its help, you can run and debug the file you currently have open by clicking the “play” button immediately to the right of the Current File option. WebStorm will automatically use the run configuration type best suited for the file you have in focus, the same as if you were to run the file from the context menu.

The new option shows up if there are no existing run configurations in your project. If some do exist, you can still find the Current File option in the dropdown menu with run configurations.

Keyboard shortcut to change font size globally

We’ve resolved a long-standing feature request in this release and introduced the ability to change the font size globally across the editor with a keyboard shortcut. You can now press ⌃⇧. / Alt+Shift+. to increase the font size. Press ⌃⇧, / Alt+Shift+, to decrease it.

Other notable changes

• Added support for TypeScript 4.7’s Resolution Customization with moduleSuffixes (WEB-55579).
• Fixed the issue in Vue 3 that was causing the false await expression error when there were two <script> blocks in the file (WEB-52317).
• Fixed the issue causing an incorrect “unexpected term” error when using variable interpolation for defining operation in calc() (WEB-21705).
• Fixed a couple of issues with Tailwind CSS code completion (WEB-52264 and WEB-51751).
