I recently have finished reading one of the best non-IT books I had in my hands, “Pragmatic Thinking and Learning” by Andy Hunt. Because there are already a lot of reviews on the Internet (e.g. http://thoughtforge.net/2010/06/10/pragmatic-thinking-learning/, http://www.javalinux.it/wordpress/2009/03/25/book-review-pragmatic-thinking-and-learning/ ), I’ll try to focus on the things I found most interesting and worth to remember.
When I started thinking about writing my first plugin for IntelliJ IDEA the biggest problem was lack of good and comprehensive guides how to do it and how to do it well gathered in one place. So this post will be a written collection of my personal experiences, links and other resources I found useful and noteworthy in my road to releasing Share with Pastie plugin to public IntelliJ repository.
Before starting writing your mind-blowing and super-extra-useful plugin you should first do some reading. Below there is a list of places worth visiting:
Getting Started - a place where you should start. The most basic introduction to creating new plugins.
Basics of plugin development – second page similar to previous one but some interesting knowledge can be found there.
