What is WebStorm?

JavaScript development made easy

Be confident in the results of your work

Write more reliable and maintainable code, with the IDE running dozens of code inspections as you type and detecting potential problems. Refactor your entire codebase in a few clicks, and don’t miss anything when implementing large structural changes.

Enjoy productive coding

Get straight to coding with everything you need for JavaScript development available out of the box. Be more productive and focus on more creative tasks while WebStorm takes care of your routine work.

Reduce the stress of complex tasks

Afraid of messing something up with Git and losing important changes? Or breaking something when renaming a component across your entire project? WebStorm will simplify these and other challenging tasks so you can focus on the big picture.

Features

Specialized in JavaScript

Looking for a tool you can trust for even the trickiest parts of your JavaScript development? We’ve been refining WebStorm for over 10 years to make coding a more enjoyable experience. Whether you work with JS, TS, React, Vue, Angular, Node.js, HTML, or style sheets, WebStorm has you covered.

The smartest editor

WebStorm deeply understands your project structure and can assist you with every aspect of writing code. It will autocomplete your code, detect and suggest fixes for errors and redundancies, and help you refactor code safely.

Built-in developer tools

One of the best parts of working in an IDE is that all of your essential tools are available in one place. Use WebStorm to debug and test your client-side and Node.js apps and work with version control. Take advantage of the linters, build tools, terminal, and HTTP client, all integrated with the IDE.

Fast navigation and search

Move through your code faster, regardless of how large your projects are. Look for files, classes, or symbols, and review all the matches in one place. Jump to the definition for any function, method, variable, component, or class, and find its usage in a few clicks.

Efficient teamwork

Onboard new teammates faster with all key functionality prepackaged. Code together in real time and talk to others right from the IDE. Share your project configuration, including code style settings, and work efficiently with Git and GitHub.

Customizable environment

Want to extend the built-in functionality? Tailor WebStorm’s look and feel to your liking by experimenting with themes and plugins. Save your custom settings and share them between different instances of WebStorm.

Licensing

License Options

JetBrains uses a subscription-based licensing model, allowing you to purchase yearly subscriptions that include all bug-fix updates. The new licensing model also includes perpetual fallback license grants. When purchasing an annual subscription, you will immediately get a perpetual fallback license for the exact version available at the time of your purchase.

Commercial Annual Subscription for legal entities, including companies and organizations (both for-profit and non-profit), requiring the software for general commercial use. A legal entity may use the software under the Business Subscription on any computer, operating system, and by any developer within a legal entity, provided that the total number of concurrent users never exceeds the number of subscriptions purchased by that legal entity.

Commercial Annual Subscription includes

  • Free unlimited email access to technical support and online support resources for the period of the Business Subscription
  • Free generally available bug fix upgrades, minor releases and major releases for the licensed JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA edition for the period of the Business Subscription
  • Available to any legal entity (companies and organizations, including non-profit and government)
  • The license is owned by the legal entity, not by an individual
  • Non-transferable restriction: Use of the software is restricted to the legal entity with no right to transfer. Companies and organizations can only transfer their licenses between employees and contractors
  • The licensed purpose of the use is general commercial usage
  • Multi-user license – the total number of concurrent software users cannot exceed the number of purchased subscriptions
  • The license term is time-limited, based on yearly subscription payments
  • Perpetual fallback license: Your license is NOT perpetual. The new licensing model includes perpetual fallback license grants. A perpetual fallback license is a license that allows you to use a specific version of the software after your Business Subscription expires. The specific version of the software you can fall back to using when your Business Subscription expires will be the exact version available at the time of your purchase.
