I'm also a huge fan of JetBrains products and how they work together. It's at the point where I'm thinking of slogans for them, like 'At JetBrains, the E in IDE stands for experience'... or maybe 'ecosystem' (needs work). Several times I've realized I could use a tool for X, and found it's already a feature they've already created.

One more great thing to add to the pile:

- Teamcity, the only CI/CD software doing actual 'configuration as code' using kotlin. Others (that I know of: jenkins, github action, gitlab) use an arcane-DSL-backed yaml file and call that 'code'. I'm not sure why copy-pasting plaintext files that throw away most the benefits of using code and IDE's have taken the software world by storm. They've become the standard API, or even UI in some cases, and it's just slow/unabstractable/non-extensible. I'm glad JetBrains has not jumped on that bandwagon and continue to focus on making a streamlined end-to-end dev experience and cater to the coders within.

Jenkins has a Groovy DSL for several years. YAML support came much later.
