Getting started with IntelliJ IDEA [Assumpcao, Hudson Orsine] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Getting started with IntelliJ IDEA Review: Not worth the price. - I found this book minimally useful for the price. Most of IntelliJ information in the book was what I had already found by basically fumbling with the IDE on my own for a short time, and found nothing in the book that increased my ability to use the IDE, except maybe (an incomplete) printed list of short cut keys. A total of four pages were used to describe Window elements and Editor elements, the aspects I was expecting to be the main ingredients of such a book. The meatier aspects of this fairly sparse book actually dwells on Database work and web development, which I do not do so much of, so on that respect I cannot comment. If you are a java developer, there's not much in it for you. The author does add a small chapter near the end on desktop development, but uses a form builder for AWT/Swing as a core element, and again very sparse. Frankly I feel I am probably not alone as one changing IDEs, I am also anxious to move on to JavaFX/Scenebuilder, which this book has no reference to. Review: Please have someone who knows English copy-edit tis book - I downloaded the free sample chapter, and I was appalled at how poor the author's English is. When one embarks on writing a book in a language one has no complete mastery of, one should consider hiring a professional technical writer. Shame on the publisher, too.

Nice reference book for navigating the IntelliJ interface
If you’re looking for a resource to help you navigate and understand the IntelliJ interface, and are looking for a good reference based on the topics you can see in the table of contents, you’ll find this book helpful. It’s very thorough, and also gives you some information for adapting to IntelliJ if you are coming from a different IDE. But the book will be more helpful to you if you’re looking for more information on the topics it covers in each chapter, as opposed to trying to read it straight through.

Good book, very informative and concise. Would recommend this book to any developer new to this particular IDE to aid their development.

Ich war zuerst eigentlich erfreut als ich gesehen habe dass es endlich ein aktuelles Buch zu Intellij IDEA gibt, da ich schon länger überlege diese IDE anstatt des immer langsamer werdenden Eclipse zu verwenden. Auch finde ich zum Selbststudium ein gedrucktes Werk immer noch besser. Irgendwie werde ich mit diesem Buch aber aus mehreren Gründen nicht warm: - Es ist für meinen Geschmack sehr unübersichtlich gestaltet - Ein Großteil des Buches beschreibt Funktionen die nur in der teuren 'Ultimate Edition' vorhanden sind - Der Preis ist unangemessen Besonders der letzte Punkt ist ärgerlich. Das Buch hat nur knapp 100 Seiten inkl. Inhaltsverzeichnis und Index. Ich weiß das Fachbücher etwas teurer sind aber fast 30 Euro für diesen Umfang und Softcover ist dann doch etwas zuviel des Guten. Fazit: Mangels Alternativen doch lieber im Internet nach Tutorials suchen, das ist auf jeden Fall effektiver.

Ich bin leider enttäuscht von dem Buch. Es geht nur auf wenige Funktionen von IntelliJ ein und bietet für diese auch nicht mehr als die offizielle Dokumentation und die Tutorials von Jetbrains. Das auf dem Umschlag vermerkte "Work with Spring framework with IntelliJ" existiert im Buch überhaupt nicht. Der Abschnitt über den visuellen Editor für Swing-Applikationen ist auch von wenig Wert, da heute kaum noch jemand neue Applikationen mit Swing baut. Der eigentliche Inhalt des Buches nimmt auch nur 90 Seiten ein. Das inzwischen in die Jahre gekommene "IntelliJ in Action" Buch bot die fünffache Menge an Inhalt für fast den selben Preis. Aus meiner Sicht bietet "Getting started with IntelliJ IDEA" also viel zu wenig Inhalt für viel zu viel Geld. Würde es nicht wieder kaufen.
