IntelliJ IDEA, the best IDE in the world, is now available for free. Yeah \o/. How cool is that? Even better, it’s has a Apache 2 License.

I’m a fan of static analysis because whem I’m writing code in a statically typed language I want to get the most of it. So I’m a huge fan of IntelliJ IDEA’s code analysis and quick-fixes.
