A tool designed to help developers setting up an development environment with the ability to share the same project settings across the team.
With devonfw-ide we have done a great job in automation of IDE installation on your local computer. However, we decided to migrate everything from bash scripts to a reasonable programming language and allow professional development and quality assurance. As a result we have created a new product IDEasy that is now replacing devonfw-ide. Furhter, IDEasy is now a self-contained product totally independent from the rest of devonfw.
If you have been using devonfw-ide and want to migrate to IDEasy please read this migration guide.
We hope to see you again at IDEasy - the professional IDE automation taking what we started with devonfw-ide to the next level!
