It will autocomplete your code, detect and suggest fixes for errors and redundancies, and help you refactor code safely.&#10;&#10;Fast navigation and search&#10;Move through your code faster, regardless of how large your projects are. Jump to the definition of any function, method, variable, component, or class, and find its usages with no effort at all. Look for files, classes, or symbols, and review all the matches in one place.&#10;&#10;Integrated developer tools&#10;Access all of your essential tools in one place. Debug and test your client-side and Node.js apps, and work with Git and GitHub. Additionally, package managers, build tools, linters, Prettier, and, of course, a terminal are all available within the IDE.&#10;&#10;AI Assistant (paid feature)&#10;Work faster with built-in AI features like code generation and context-aware smart chat. Let the IDE help you find the best way to refactor your code or generate commit messages and write documentation for you.&#10;&#10;Customization&#10;Make WebStorm your own with different themes, fonts, and keymaps. You can also add extra functionality with hundreds of plugins from our marketplace.&#10;&#10;Collaborative and remote development&#10;Code together in real time and talk to others right in your IDE. Work on a project located in a remote development environment, which can be hosted on your own machine or in cloud solutions, such as Google Cloud Workstations or GitHub Codespaces."

### "A software engineer's (fullstack) point of view on Webstorm." — 5.0/5

> **Mateusz** | *29 June 2022* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WebStorm is in a class of its own. After downloading and installing it, you can start developing your application practically right away. You don't need to configure or install anything. Many plugins can be installed if needed. It is intuitive and complete.

### "The Smartest IDE For JS Developers" — 5.0/5

> **Ozone** | *15 October 2023* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WebStorm is a powerful IDE by JetBrains specialized in JavaScript and JavaScript framework development. It comes with a lot of developer tools, such as linters, formatters, debugging tools, terminal, and refactoring tools. It analyzes all of the project in the start, and finds all references, usages, and provides improvement suggestions and problems. It is an amazing tool for professional development.
> 
> **Cons**: As WebStorm analyzes all of the files and directories at the start, it needs some time to find references and index the entire project, which can lead to a long boot time. It is not a beginner friendly IDE, with lots of features spread out through the IDE. So, unless the developer has other JetBrains product experience, it will take some time to get used to. It is also a heavy application which takes up a lot of the computer's power and can cause crashes on older machines.

### "Awesome web development IDEA" — 5.0/5

> **Jelle** | *15 May 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WebStorm is an IDEA with many functionalities to develop web applications. Debugging web applications is not always easy, but with WebStorm this doesn't bring trouble.
> 
> **Cons**: WebStorm has a lot of functionalities and therefore can get difficult to get started with.

### "I love this" — 5.0/5

> **hasini** | *12 February 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: First of all, I love the interfaces and themes are very attractive. IDE supports some of the features like auto imports, availability of plenty of plugins, syntax error detection, easy repository integration, easy debugger and support multiple frameworks.
> 
> **Cons**: Webstorm is expensive when comparing with other IDEs in the market. Need to have at least 8GB RAM because it is using memory a lot.
> 
> For me webstorm is is the best IDE available in Jetbrains package. I have been using this for more than six years and I love coding with it. This software is always updated to the current standards and I think that's why it remains as the leader in the market.
