A set of shell scripts and Dockerfiles for building and running Docker containers with JetBrains IDEs served remotely via JetBrains Projector, accessible from a web browser. The standalone Projector product is now obsolete, with JetBrains recommending Gateway for remote development instead.
Use cases
- run IntelliJ IDEA in a Docker container and access it from a browser
- self-host a remote JetBrains IDE on a server
- develop in PyCharm or CLion from a thin client or Chromebook
- spin up disposable containerized IDE environments for testing
- access a full IDE from a machine that can't run it locally
When to choose
- you need a legacy setup running standalone Projector in Docker and can't migrate
- you want to experiment with browser-accessed JetBrains IDEs without installing anything locally
When to avoid
- you want a supported remote development solution - use JetBrains Gateway instead
- you need low latency, port forwarding, or OS-specific shortcuts
- you expect bug fixes or support - the project is officially obsolete
