These remote instances can be warmed up – initialized in advance – so developers can begin coding right away without spending their time on configuring the environment, dealing with the version control system, and so on.

The new functionality provides the familiar experience of a desktop-based IDE while moving all the heavy load to a remote server. They don’t have to set up the local environment and wait for it to initialize their project and, most importantly, they aren’t limited by the power of their own computers.” “Our goal is to provide them with a seamless and unified coding experience no matter what machine they’re using and where they’re based. “With our Remote Development solution developers can now get a ready-to-use environment right from their own repository”, said Kirill Skrygan, Remote Development Lead at JetBrains.

Users of IntelliJ IDEA and other IDEs will be able to remotely access fully featured and instantly available development environments in the cloud or on a private server. Kotlin creator JetBrains has announced the public launch of its solution for remote development in the cloud and on any other server.
