WebStorm 2026.2 is out!
Large TypeScript codebase? This release has your back.
TS 7 ships out of the box, no migration needed. We tested it on Kibana, and project load time went from ~12s to ~3s.
What’s more, GitHub Copilot is now natively integrated (no plugin setup required), and the new agent skills manager lets your AI agents carry knowledge of your stack across every project and session.

@mikewille Mike, we hope to change your mind during this year! We’re working hard to make our IDEs truly useful in the changing agentic era, and give you plenty more reasons to stay.
Will we still have a job in five years? On Nov 13, JetBrains AI.js Day puts frontend's scariest AI questions on air, live, online, and free.
Kent C. Dodds, Marina Wyss, Danny Thompson, and more.

An agent writes the code now. Do you still need an IDE?
You do if you want to understand and verify what the agent did.
🎥 In our new video, we talk about the role of an IDE now that humans aren't the only ones working on the code. https://t.co/Fd7YyX43EV
