Hello All

It's been a quite long time since the last time i use grails (almost a year) and now that grails 3 is out and pivotal stop supporting it, i'm not sure what's the best IDE for grails develop.
I configured ggts 3.6.4, but it's quite useless if it doesn't recognize the grails project structure. I have no experience with intellij idea and grails or with netbeans so my question is: what's the best ide at the moment for grails? 
Thanks in advice

Luca

Moin Luca,

the best solution is IntelliJ for me. It provides great tooling and support for grails and gradle. They play very nice together - you should give it a try!

Cheers,
Chris

Hello Chris, thanks for answer!
I suppose that you use intellij idea ultimate edition for grails, that's right?

Please add full grails support to your community edition

@Luca:
You're right, I'm using the ultimate edition. Never tried that community stuff. 
I assume the tooling is not as good as in the ultimate version.

@Vahid I think the point in having Grails support in the Ultimate edition is having something for JetBrains to sell. The community edition does not produce much revenue in it self, but helps the community.

Just an FYI…

I use the Community Edition all the time even though I have access to the UE. For Grails 3 that works very well. There are things that can be added to UE that will be helpful but even without any of that I am very productive building Grails 3 apps. As far as the IDE is concerned, it is just a Java/Groovy app that is built with Gradle. The IDE doesn’t need to have any specific Grails smarts built into it in order to configure all of the source directories, be able to run the app, run tests, debug, attach a remote debugger, etc. It is quite nice to work with.
