Building Themes for IntelliJ-based IDEs
More than 200 themes are available for IntelliJ-based IDEs on JetBrains Marketplace. But if you can’t find one that offers the specific look and feel you want for your IDE, you can create your own IDE theme plugin. For example, you can define UI control colors, change background images, add custom icons, and provide custom editor schemes. In this new episode of the Busy Plugin Developers webinar, Jakub Chrzanowski will demonstrate the customization possibilities of IntelliJ-based IDEs and guide you through the process of creating an IDE theme and publishing it on JetBrains Marketplace. We’ll also share the latest updates to the Marketplace itself, focusing in particular on how we changed the UI to improve the plugin vendor experience.
