### Preliminary Steps
|
|
|
|
Use the following checklist to ensure that you are ready to develop your custom plugins.
|
|
|
|
- **Get IntelliJ IDEA CE source code** on your local computer.
|
|
Getting IntelliJ IDEA CE source code is not a requirement for plugin development, but having it makes debugging your plugins much more straightforward.
|
|
For detailed instructions, refer to the _Getting IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition Source Code_ section of [Check Out And Build Community Edition](upsource:///README.md).
|
|
Note that building IntelliJ IDEA CE from source code is not required for plugin development.
|
|
- **Plugin DevKit** plugin must be [enabled in IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/managing-plugins.html).
|
|
- **IntelliJ Platform SDK** must be configured for your IDEA project.
|
|
For more information, see below.
|
|
|
|
### Configuring IntelliJ Platform SDK
|
|
|
|
To set up your plugin development environment:
|
|
|
|
* Create a new *IntelliJ Platform SDK* under **File \| Project Structure**:
|
|

|
|
<br/>
|
|
<br/>
|
|
* Specify the installation folder of the *IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition* as the home directory.
|
|
> You may use IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate as an alternative, but debugging the core code will only work with the *Community Edition*.
|
|

|
|
<br/>
|
|
<br/>
|
|
* Select **1.8** as the default Java SDK.
|
|
See the _IntelliJ Build Configuration_ section of [Check Out And Build Community Edition](upsource:///README.md) for instructions about creating **1.8** Java SDK.
|
|

|
|
<br/>
|
|
<br/>
|
|
* In the Sourcepath tab of the SDK settings, click the *Add* button:
|
|

|
|
<br/>
|
|
<br/>
|
|
* Specify the source code directory for the *IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition*:
|
|

|
|
<br/>
|
|
<br/>
|
|
* Specify the **Sandbox Home** directory.
|
|
The *Sandbox Home* directory stores the settings of the IDE development instance launched from a Plugin Project's **Run** configuration.
|
|
Shown below is the default *Sandbox Home* directory for a user on Mac OS X.
|
|
Any directory can be chosen as the *Sandbox Home* location.
|
|
Use the ellipsis button (shown below) to define a custom location.

|
See the [IDE Development Instances](ide_development_instance.md) page for more information about default *Sandbox Home* directory locations and contents.
