At JetBrains we believe that making tools for developers should involve listening to them. Our Early Access Program lets the community participate in discussions devoted to our products and influence the development planning, from the early stages onwards.
Why should you try EAP builds?
Early Access Programs allow you to try pre-release versions of our software.
You can use them to evaluate the features which will be added to the next release. Please use our issue tracker to report bugs and suggest new features.
This is an early access version of the product.
You expressly acknowledge that this version of the product may not be reliable, may not work as intended and may contain errors. Any use of the EAP product is at your own risk.
