To me, a Rider community edition seems more likely. So no, I don't expect there to be a community edition for WebStorm but more likely for other languages. So when I finish my uni I will eventually buy it, because of how much a part of life it has become. Being a student I get all of them for free, and now I have been hooked to it because good it is.

The P圜harm and IntelliJ idea community edition are there for users to get hooked to the IDE's and then buy the professional IDE's because of how much they love it. Now let's say they suddenly decided that they want to use java as a backend what do they do, well they can use the IntelliJ idea community edition for writing java backend and WebStorm community edition for writing the front-end, which to JetBrains they lose out on a customer that would have purchased IntelliJ professional also same applies for P圜harm community edition. Most of the people here use IntelliJ idea which is their flagship IDE. They are more likely to introduce a community edition of some other IDE like rider because of unity support, not WebStorm.

As much as I'd like one, it's most likely against their business model. Like I understand that this is an age-old question of whether or not JetBrains will release a community edition of WebStorm or not.

We have 3 major releases a year, it means that you can run a free trial version 3 times a year for 30 days after every release.

Note that the 30-day free trial is available for every major product update (e.g. Plus, we keep the WebStorm price relatively low for individuals (it’s just US $59 a year, and the price goes down every next year of use) so that more individual developers can afford it. Anyway, we try to support the community in other different ways, such as giving away WebStorm subscriptions to open-source projects or providing discounts for students and educational institutions. It’s a significant commitment that we aren’t ready to make at the moment.

So, if we made such a radical change, we’d have to fully restructure the existing sales model and, what’s more, the entire platform architecture.

Unfortunately, it’s not feasible right now, mainly because the WebStorm functionality is included in a lot of other JetBrains IDEs. We’d lie if we said that we’d never thought about introducing a community edition of WebStorm.

I'm merely pointing out that in client-side web application development, VS Code is eating your lunch, at least as far as public perception goes. Without a WebStorm community edition, like almost everyone else, I'll simply use VS Code in my talks, thus moving students and attendees farther away from JetBrains.įwiw, I have a full, every-tool-included, annual JetBrains subscription, so I'm not saying this to save a few bucks myself. I'll never send them to a non-GA, EAP version and hope that everything is stable enough for them not to stumble because of an unreleased tool. I understand there are ways to work around this, as the answer above shows, but again, that would never be a 'trick' I'd recommend to an audience. This represents lost mindshare.Īs someone who does these talks and who is planning to post some online videos and training, I simply cannot expect someone to shell out money for a tool to use in the class or to follow along in a presentation. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever seen a conference talk or YouTube tutorial that used WebStorm. I can't count the number of online classes, YouTube videos, conference demos, and other presentations I've seen over the last year that used the free VS Code IDE. I think it's a mistake not to have a community edition for WebStorm.
