well... completely integrated is a stretch.

I'm currently wrestling with Ubuntu because IntelliJ will crash hard when opening a Java project on a WSL path.

When it doesn't crash (downgrade the jbr) it will fail to establish the RMI connection with the mvn process in Linux.

In a previous Scala project I also had to go Ubuntu native because the IntelliJ sbt plugin would run the Win10 jvm even when running in the WSL2 context.

So, yeah... there's enough differences to make it unusable for me.



Seems like you would have these exact same problems if you were running Ubuntu in a VirtualBox VM also?


Nah, I wouldn’t have tried to run IntelliJ from windows at all, or I’d have run Mingw or just booted to Linux.

Or just gone MacOS as I’ve done for 15 years. I tried out windows out of exasperation for Apple’s latest intel lemons and out of curiosity, wondering if the grass has finally grown on the other side of the wall. Nope, still the same
