Tagged with: tux intellij

All Drexel students, staff, and faculty can try a non-trial free version of Intellij by doing the following.

Written Instructions

Drexel instructors and students can get a free license for JetBrains, so long as they use their userid@drexel.edu email address (example: mjg88@drexel.edu ).

You have to do some clicking & registering.

Make sure you keep using your @drexel.edu address when you do so.

Here's how.

  1. Scroll down at link below, to find and click "For Students and Teachers." 
    https://www.jetbrains.com/community/education/#students
  2. Then scroll down further on the next page to...
    "Get free access to all developer tools from JetBrains!"
    and click "Apply now."
  3. Then you'll need to agree to some Terms of Use at various points.
    I would NOT sign up for notifications about products (uncheck boxes).
  4. After that, fill in the form with your @drexel.edu address and other info.
  5. You are a Computer Science or Engineering student, as you're taking a programming course or teaching it, or select Instructor.
  6. Once you submit that form, you'll get an email in your @drexel.edu email inbox in Outlook.
  7. Click the link in the email.
  8. Register or create a new account using your @drexel.edu account, and make a password
    (Save it somewhere, password manager, browser, etc.)
    Do NOT login with Google or Facebook  or Git etc.
  9. Use your Drexel account.
    Once you created your account, you should have onscreen instructions to login and/or get from software.
  10. At some point, you'll see a Download link, AND your license key for Intellij IDEA.
