AEM project development is hard

Working with AEM involves niche technologies such as Apache Sling, OSGi, JCR, HTL, Dispatcher, and more. Unfortunately, IDEs don't support them out of the box.

Your developers perform hundreds of tedious manual tasks daily. They're tired and frustrated, and the risk of burnout is real.

An unhappy team works slower and produces more bugs. This leads to project delays, increased development costs, and customer disappointment — a common problem for many AEM teams.

But there's good news. Your team can do better, and the solution is easier than you might expect.

Empower your people with AEM IDE

AEM IDE is a plugin for IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm, and other JetBrains IDEs. It supports the AEM technology stack, seamlessly integrating into the IDE and significantly simplifies and accelerates development.

Think of it as a developer’s copilot, providing hints on what to write next, identifying issues in the code on the fly, and automating cumbersome tasks.

Let your developers install the plugin and observe immediate relief and increased work satisfaction. Enhanced productivity will empower your team to deliver projects within the agreed-upon timelines. Higher code quality will further improve the reliability and performance of your projects.

Wait no more and boost your team now.

Developers love AEM IDE

Don't take our word for it.

I mark AEM IDE as "required software" for every job I do and every company I work for. The functionality is integral to efficiently writing AEM components, especially the frontend HTML/HTL.
Highly recommended!

Both JCR content synchronization with AEM servers and adding OSGi bundles as project libraries are game changers. They make AEM development significantly faster and much more enjoyable. I highly recommend AEM IDE. Also, because it's consistently receiving new cool features with each release.

AEM IDE is a full-blown power toolbox to develop AEM applications. In the past, I had to build a lot of tooling myself to debug and decompile the latest bundles, but AEM IDE takes that trouble all away. It is a real pleasure to see that the toolbox keeps on growing and feedback is actively taken into account.

A must-have IDE plugin to speed up development by leveraging the deep integration with AEM. I can deliver more qualitative code due to the deep integration which prevents bugs and makes you aware of well accepted standards and documentation. I recommend AEM IDE to all developers with any level of expertise.

AEM IDE is paramount to those who require fast feedback and visibility of the code they write for AEM. Being able to see, interact, and understand complex APIs without ever needing to leave IntelliJ feels like magic. AEM IDE bridges the gap between developers and AEM, powering better code, enabling a more profound understanding of technologies such as Sightly, and allowing us to focus more on the outcome.

Until AEM IDE, any component development, especially HTL, was based on the assumption I am capable of parsing it in my head. Now, AEM IDE does it for me, and I may focus on my essential work, seamlessly browsing through the codebase. My productivity increased.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose a license for organizations?

If you're purchasing for a legal entity, such as companies and organizations (both for-profit and non-profit) requiring the software for general commercial use, you qualify for an organization license. This license can be used on any computer and by any developer within the organization, ensuring that the total number of concurrent users never exceeds the number of subscriptions purchased by that legal entity. See the license type comparison for more details.

Should I choose a license for individuals?

If you are an individual purchasing the plugin with your own funds, you can use an individual license. This license can be used for commercial project development on any hardware, including company hardware. The individual license cannot be funded indirectly by a legal entity. See the license type comparison for more details.

Why is there a discount for individuals?

We believe organizations should provide employees with the proper tools to do the job. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, and we aim to make AEM IDE more affordable for developers who may not have the opportunity to work for a company that understands the importance of proper tools.

Can I mix different IDE and plugin license types?

Yes. AEM IDE plugin license is not connected to the IDE license. It means that if you use an IDE license for organizations, you are still allowed to purchase a license for individuals. If you use a personal IDE license, your organization is still allowed to purchase a license for organizations.

What happens after subscription expires?

If you purchase a subscription for 1 year or more, and it expires, you will be allowed to use the plugin on a fallback license basis. This enables you to continue using the plugin in the exact major version available at the time of purchase. Any minor updates (e.g., bug fixes) will be available to you without limitations. However, updating to a newer major version will require the purchase of a new subscription.

Can I purchase through my software distributor?

Most likely. There is a wide network of JetBrains product resellers, including SoftwareOne, SparkDynamic, QBS Software, and many more. Feel free to make your purchase through the channel that best suits your needs.

Do you offer discounts?

We believe the current prices are cheap for the value they provide, and our happy customers show that. We offer the continuity discounts outlined in the pricing: 20% for the 2nd year and 40% for the 3rd year and beyond. Save an extra 20% with a yearly subscription. No additional discounts are offered.

What IDEs are supported?

We support all JetBrains IDEs based on the IntelliJ Platform (IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm, Android Studio, PhpStorm, PyCharm, etc.). The available plugin features depend on each IDE's capabilities. For instance, if your IDE lacks Java language support, the corresponding plugin functionality will be disabled.
