New UI - Minimize distractions. Boost productivity. Stay in the zone.

This page will bring you up to speed on the new interface in IntelliJ IDEA. Despite the new look and feel, the UI hasn’t lost a step in terms of functionality and can be customised to meet your needs.

I personally saw it, thought something around the lines of “this looks like VS Code” (probably will take some getting used to), and disabled.

Curious if anyone is using it and your thoughts so far.

    I tried it briefly but instantly switched back to the default UI. I found setting breakpoints to be annoying. Also, not everything needs to be VS Code. Part of the reason I use JetBrains IDEs is for the additional information it provides. Hiding away useful information in an attempt to look like VS Code is frustrating.
