You must be running at least IntelliJ version 2023.1.x, or newer. If you’re running an older version of IntelliJ, the BaseRock plugin will not work. To begin:

  • Simply download and install IntelliJ IDEA from the official JetBrains website
  • Choose the edition that best fits your needs – the Community edition is free and open-source, while the Ultimate edition offers additional features

Java 8+

BaseRock supports Java 8+. This step assumes that you have JDK installed on your machine. If you’re running an older version of Java, please reach out to us atsupport@baserock.ai
