## What it is
A Solidity language plugin for IntelliJ-based IDEs providing syntax highlighting, code completion, navigation, formatting, and file templates. It also includes a Forge test runner with gutter icons for running tests in *.t.sol files.

## Use cases
- write and edit Solidity smart contracts in IntelliJ
- syntax highlighting for Solidity files
- code completion and goto declaration for Solidity
- format Solidity code in the IDE
- run Foundry (Forge) tests from the editor
- create new Solidity projects from templates

## When to choose
- you develop Ethereum smart contracts in IntelliJ IDEA or other JetBrains IDEs
- you want IDE features like navigation, completion, and formatting for Solidity
- you use Foundry/Forge and want integrated test running

## When to avoid
- you use VS Code or another editor instead of JetBrains IDEs
- you need full compilation or deployment tooling rather than editor support
- you work primarily in non-EVM blockchain languages

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: editor, formatter, testing, parser
- domain: blockchain, developer-tools, text-editors
- platform: editor-plugin, cross-platform, jvm
- tags: solidity, intellij, ethereum, evm, jetbrains, smart-contracts, code-completion, syntax-highlighting, forge
