WebStorm 2026.2 is out!
Large TypeScript codebase? This release has your back.
TS 7 ships out of the box, no migration needed. We tested it on Kibana, and project load time went from ~12s to ~3s.
What’s more, GitHub Copilot is now natively integrated (no plugin setup required), and the new agent skills manager lets your AI agents carry knowledge of your stack across every project and session.
Check out the new version to discover all the updates: jb.gg/vz7c4w
What if you could make one change to JavaScript? Absolutely anything you like.
Justin Ridgewell tells us what he'd pick, straight from TC39's 114th meeting in Amsterdam.

JetBrains Air is one system for building software with agents: wide agent support, agent-driven workflows, and the IDE intelligence that keeps developers in control.
Today we introduce JetBrains Air - the product system for software development orgs in the age of agents.
Built for developers, team leads & engineering directors.

If you could change one thing about JavaScript, no strings attached – what would it be? Watch Eemeli Aro (Mozilla) answer that and the types question 🎥 youtu.be/Dv9zv5JZxpg
Could WebAssembly replace JavaScript? And how has AI already changed the way TC39 thinks about the language?
Nicolò Ribaudo (Igalia) answers both these questions and more.

Who really owns JavaScript? Aki Rose Braun (Ecma International) has the answer, straight from TC39's 114th meeting in Amsterdam.

If you open WSL projects in WebStorm, just open them directly — that's Native mode, and it's the one we'd recommend as your default 🎯
Here's why we're confident in saying that: jb.gg/wsl-native-mode
Already using it? Tell us how it holds up in the replies.
WebStorm is the first IDE to ship full TypeScript 7 support for Angular.
No migration needed. Just flip the switch and get the speed of the new Go-based engine on your existing project.

Is AI now a part of how JavaScript gets designed – not just how it's written?
F5's Michael Ficarra @smooshMap weighs in from TC39's 114th meeting in Amsterdam.

Your code is in WebStorm – now your telemetry can be too. 🔥
Explore logs, metrics, and traces for your Node.js services and frontend apps right inside WebStorm, before deployment. No separate backend required.

The dependency upgrade nobody wants to own. Junie Local runs on your machine, unmetered, so it can grind through it while you do something else. /local
WebStorm, a JetBrains IDE retweeted
Hey you there, passerby!
We're building the @WebStormIDE AI.JS Day agenda differently this time. No topic list. No speakers first.
Most "#AI in frontend" events are just product demos with a panel bolted on.
this bores me
so we're flipping it.
What's the one question about AI + frontend you can't stop thinking about? The one you'd actually show up to hear debated.
A few that are rattling around over here:
-will frontend dev still be a job in 5 years?
-what skills actually matter for developers now?
-does context matter more than the model?
Drop yours below. The best ones become sessions. Free, virtual, November 13. 👇👇
so, we are @WebStormIDE creating an "AI JS Day" event (similar to the longstanding JS day we do annually) and Id LOVE to get some speakers.
and guess what the date is.....
FRIDAY NOVEMBER 13th (I HAD TO)
soooooo

Already paying for Claude, Codex, or Cursor? Bring your subscription to WebStorm.
If you're already paying for #claude , #Codex, or #cursor, there's nothing stopping you from bringing your agents to @WebStormIDE . The IDE can use any of your existing subscriptions via ACP – no JetBrains AI credits required! Check out this video to see how to set it up and thanks to @juandadotdev for the question!
Bring your own agent to WebStorm. GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or any ACP-compliant agent – connect them directly, with no JetBrains AI subscription required. ACP handles the protocol. You pick the agent.

#WebStormTip
Did you ever dream that your AI agent would be able to check its own work in the browser? Well, dreams do come true.
Chrome DevTools Connect for WebStorm lets agents see and interact with the browser directly. It ships as a bundled Chrome DevTools CLI skill inside WebStorm, with a one-time setup on first use and automatic startup thereafter.
Built with @ChromeDevTools team: jetbrains.blog/x0z3mv
#NewInWebStorm
Meet Chrome DevTools Connect for WebStorm → goo.gle/4i2wPuL
Now your AI agent can open Chrome, inspect rendering, read console logs, and verify runtime fixes without you leaving the WebStorm IDE.
How do you evolve a language used by millions of developers without breaking the web? That's TC39's job – the committee that designs and evolves JavaScript.
We sat down with TC39 committee members during their 114th meeting, hosted at JetBrains' office in Amsterdam, to talk proposals, breaking changes, and what it takes to write a spec that has to work everywhere.
This is just a teaser – full interviews coming soon.
