Credential persistence in the IntelliJ SDK comes down to three moving parts: Attributes, PasswordSafe, and Credentials. Here's how they connect.

Debouncing search text field updates? Too many file system events occurring too quickly? IntelliJ SDK 2026.2 has DebouncedUpdates – an event coalescing mechanism. Supports last-only mode, collection into a list, and it’s aware of the UI and coroutine lifecycle. platform.jetbrains.com/t/introducin...

I can now edit my IntelliJ plugin description directly from the Marketplace UI. ✏️ No need to upload a new plugin version with a modified plugin.xml. The IntelliJ Platform SDK docs have been updated, too. plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/marketp...

An IntelliJ SDK plugin with a configurable settings pane that is Split Mode-aware is now clearer. @halirutan.bsky.social and @picimako have a short guide to handle this. TL;DR: If the Settings UI directly modifies the persisted project state, keep the related `Configurable` on the backend.

Almost missed the fact that AI Chats in #IntelliJIDEA can finally be moved to editor windows (and back). Feels like more air.

Passwords and alike in IntelliJ plugins belong in the PasswordSafe. But credentials need to be handled off the EDT, and a few API elements needs to click together. The IntelliJ Platform SDK docs now cover this with updated best practices and Kotlin examples. 📄 plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intelli...
