To use Flexible Julia, you need to have Julia source files in your project.
- Install the plugin
- Check that *.jl file types are correctly associated (Settings > File Types > "Flexible Julia" > List should include *.jl; Add if missing)
- Open any Julia file (.jl) and start coding with full syntax highlighting and code completion
- Use Ctrl+Space (or Cmd+Space on Mac) to trigger code completion
- Navigate through your code using Ctrl+Click (or Cmd+Click) on identifiers
- Use code folding to collapse/expand function definitions and modules
- Enjoy real-time syntax validation as you type
- Open Julia package projects with
Project.tomlfiles - the plugin recognizes standard Julia project structures - Write and edit Julia modules with proper syntax support
- Develop macros and metaprogramming code with specialized highlighting
- Use unicode operators naturally - the plugin supports Julia's extensive mathematical notation
- Format your code according to Julia community style guidelines
- Syntax Highlighting: All Julia keywords, operators, types, and constructs are beautifully highlighted
- Code Completion: Get intelligent suggestions for Julia built-ins and your custom functions
- Error Detection: Catch syntax errors before running your code
- Unicode Support: Type mathematical operators and symbols with full IDE support
- Navigation: Jump to definitions and find usages across your project
- JetBrains IDE (IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.) version 2023.3 or later
- Julia language runtime (not required for the plugin to work, but needed to run your code)
