A couple months back I landed a free IntelliJIDEA license while attending the SATJUG.  I’ve it installed on my personal computer but just haven’t really used it.  Each time I start to hobby code my mouse instinctively hovers over the Eclipse icon.  It’s not that I’m against using a non-eclipse based IDE, it’s just that I hate trying to learn how to use a new IDE.  I learned how to use Eclipse because it was “the” IDEA at the time and it’s what I use at the office, well actually we use MyEclipse which I despise….  Everything I’ve read about IntelliJ has been positive and looks like I’ll like it, it’s now up to me to learn to use it.

I will learn to use IntelliJ. I will learn to use IntelliJ.  I will learn to use IntelliJ!
