JetBrains Projector
Accessing JetBrains IDEs and Swing applications through a network is made possible by utilizing Swing, a graphical widget toolkit for Java, which powers current JetBrains IDEs and other IntelliJ-based applications, including Android Studio. Projector stands out as a groundbreaking self-hosted solution that allows IntelliJ-based IDEs and Swing applications to run on a server, providing users the capability to connect from anywhere via web browsers or specific applications. For example, the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition can be executed in the Safari browser on macOS, enabling code execution closer to the runtime or database, which effectively reduces latency. This arrangement is particularly advantageous in high-security settings and corporate environments, where thin clients and affordable hardware, such as Android tablets, can be utilized. Users can conveniently power down their local machines while their applications continue to run on the server, thus optimizing resource usage. Additionally, it permits the execution of the IDE in a GNU/Linux environment on Windows systems or even on more unusual operating systems like ChromeOS. By making use of VM or Docker images that come preloaded with debug sources and a configured IDE, developers can achieve seamless remote debugging from the server side, catering to both development testing and production needs. This flexibility significantly boosts productivity, streamlining workflows, and making it an essential asset for contemporary software development. Furthermore, the ease of access to powerful development tools from virtually any device expands opportunities for collaboration and innovation in programming projects.
