## What it is
Official JetBrains repository of code samples demonstrating how to build plugins with the IntelliJ Platform SDK. Each sample is a stand-alone Gradle project covering topics like actions, inspections, tool windows, PSI, and language plugins.

## Use cases
- learn how to write an IntelliJ plugin
- find example code for IntelliJ Platform extension points
- build a custom inspection or intention for IntelliJ IDEA
- create a tool window or run configuration plugin
- develop a custom language plugin for JetBrains IDEs
- bootstrap a JetBrains plugin project with Gradle

## When to choose
- you are developing a plugin for IntelliJ IDEA or other JetBrains IDEs
- you want official, maintained examples of IntelliJ Platform APIs
- you need a starting template for a specific plugin feature like actions, settings, or PSI

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready plugin rather than educational samples
- you target IDEs other than JetBrains products
- you want a non-Java/JVM plugin development workflow

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, plugin-system, documentation
- domain: developer-tools, tutorials, documentation
- platform: jvm
- tags: intellij-platform, jetbrains, ide-plugins, code-samples, gradle, sdk, intellij
