Create new project using Vue CLI in WebStorm Now you can use Vue CLI to create new Vue projects right from WebStorm’s Welcome screen. vue-cli is an official tool for scaffolding Vue apps. You’ll need to install it first by running npm install --g vue

WebStorm makes it easier to debug Node.js apps. You can put breakpoints right in your source code (no more debugger and console.log() statements!), which can be written in JavaScript or TypeScript. You can do many things that will help you explore the code and understand where the bug is. In the debugging tool window, you can see the call stack and the variables in their current state, evaluate expressions in the editor, and step through the code – read more about that in the How to debug with WebStorm blog post. And you can start debugging your app very quickly. Here’s how. We’ll use a

If you’re working on a full-stack JavaScript application in WebStorm, you’ve probably noticed that code completion suggests some Node.js APIs in your client-side code and DOM APIs in the Node.js code. Here’s how to fix that. What is Library in WebStorm? All the objects defined in your application are automatically added to the WebStorm completion suggestions, but for adding Node.js and DOM APIs as well as symbols from the project’s dependencies to the code completion WebStorm uses a mechanism called External JavaScript Libraries or just Libraries. You can see a list of Libraries configure

Node.js developers are embracing Docker for repeatable builds, and WebStorm supports Docker-oriented workflows: Quickly bootstrap your Node.js app with a Dockerfile, then run and debug your app in Docker, from the WebStorm IDE. Let’s take a look. Note: WebStorm’s Docker support is for server-side Node.js applications. It isn’t aimed at client-side applications, e.g. Angular or React. Nor is it for tools like linters or test runners which need to interact with the editor. Summary Setup your local Docker environment Create, run, and debug a local demo Express application Connect t

Please meet WebStorm 2016.3, the third big WebStorm update of 2016 jam-packed with new features! For the past four months we’ve been working hard to improve support for ES6, TypeScript, and Flow and integrate more tools into the IDE, to help you develop more smoothly and productively not only for the web but also for mobile. Visit What’s new in WebStorm 2016.3 to see a full overview of its new features or watch an overview video below. https://youtu.be/_THi3bEmp7g And here're some of the highlights: Support for Flow: type errors are reported right in the editor; Flow-powered co

The new WebStorm 2016.3 EAP build (163.3512) is now available! You can download it here or, if you have installed the previous WebStorm 2016.3 EAP build (163.3094), you should soon get a notification in the IDE about a patch update (unfortunately, there is no patch for Windows this time). Using Docker with Node.js apps WebStorm 2016.3 EAP brings integrations with Docker: you can now run and debug Node.js apps running in Docker using a Node.js run/debug configuration in WebStorm. WebStorm can also help you quickly bootstrap Docker for your app. Find more details on the integration in this blo

WebStorm 2016.1.2, a second bug fix update for WebStorm 2016.1, is now available! Update, May 18th: We have release WebStorm 2016.1.2b – this update brings these important security fixes to the OS X 10.10 users and some Windows users who were unable to successfully install WebStorm 2016.1.2. If you have successfully updated to WebStorm 2016.1.2, you may ignore this update. This update brings lots of bug fixes and improvements in all parts of the IDE. Among those is a fix for supporting debugging with the freshly released Node.js v6.0. Unfortunately, fixes related to the Angular 2 RC sup

We’re excited to announce the release of WebStorm 2016.1, the first major update for our IDE this year. This update brings even better experience while editing and refactoring JavaScript and TypeScript code and steps up the IDE’s debugging capabilities. Download WebStorm 2016.1 for your OS on the What's new page on our website. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uceWBKISaF8 Here are the highlights of this update: Improvements in ECMAScript 6 and TypeScript support: better refactoring options, new Unused imports inspection and Optimize imports action. Major enhancements in Angular

Keeping up with everything that’s going on in the web development community and the JavaScript ecosystem can be challenging. With lots of articles and blog posts that we on the WebStorm team go through on a regular basis, we thought we’d share some that we enjoyed and discussed the most over the past month. We’re not going for the most comprehensive digest out there, but want to focus mainly on covering the technologies already supported in WebStorm as well as the industry’s best practices. JavaScript, libraries and frameworks Dr. Axel Rauschmayer, who’s well known for his blog 2ality and

WebStorm 11.0.2 is now available! You can download it from our website or install a new version directly from WebStorm 11.0.1. This update brings lots of bug fixes and various improvements. Here are some highlights. Better support for npm 3 npm 3 brings a new flat structure of dependencies. Previously, to make indexing faster WebStorm indexed only top level folders in the node_modules directory, excluding module’s own dependencies. With the new flat structure the old approach doesn’t work. So in WebStorm 11.0.2 we now first check the list of the dependencies in the package.json file and the

In WebStorm 11 it’s now easier to start working with Node.js projects. Configuring coding assistance for Node.js To enable code assistance for Node.js core APIs (and that means you’ll get smart code completion, parameter info and navigation to source code), the only thing you need to do is go to Preferences | Languages & Frameworks | Node.js and npm and check Coding assistance for Node.js. An even quicker way to do the same is to use the Enable Node.js Core library quick-fix. Press Alt+Enter on the highlighted usage of one of the Node.js core modules in the code and then press Ent
