JetBrains is in major update mood, flinging out version 2020.3 of its JavaScript development IDE WebStorm. Just last week the company brought TeamCity and DataGrip up to date.
As keen observers of its customer base, the team behind WebStorm noted that CSS and HTML code inside JavaScript template literals had become more of a thing in recent months. To help keep the resulting code readable, it therefore implemented formatting support for multiline CSS and HTML blocks with JavaScript inside.
Meanwhile the newly added option to come up with templates for creating multiple files at once can help to make sure that you don’t forget to add test files for new .js files, for example.

Other productivity helpers in version 2020.3 include inline watches to reduce errors when switching contexts, and interactive inline hints which offer additional information and ways to change values. Teams keen on keeping their pair programming practice going while sitting side by side isn’t an option can also make use of the “Code With Me” service for collaborative development WebStorm should now be compatible with.
Since TypeScript is definitely here to stay, the TypeScript language service was integrated into the Problems tool window. The hope is to make the user interface less crowded and provide a central space to review critical code problems. Users taking advantage of version 3.0 of the Vue.js framework on other other hand will run into less issues, thanks to support for things like the syntax and the defineComponent method.
