SSD drive with at least 5 GB of free space
Officially released 64-bit versions of the following:
Microsoft Windows 10 1809 or later
Windows Server 2019 or later
macOS 10.15 or later
Any Linux distribution that supports Gnome, KDE , or Unity DE.
IntelliJ IDEA is not available for the Linux distributions that do not include GLIBC 2.27 or later.
Pre-release versions are not supported.
Latest 64-bit version of Windows, macOS, or Linux (for example, Debian, Ubuntu, or RHEL)
You do not need to install Java to run IntelliJ IDEA because JetBrains Runtime is bundled with the IDE (based on JRE 17). However, to develop Java applications, a standalone JDK is required.
Older Linux distributions (before Ubuntu 18.04 and CentOS 8) don’t support the required JCEF version starting from IntelliJ IDEA version 2022.1. This means that components relying on the embedded browser will not work, for example, the Markdown HTML preview and the interactive debugger console.

Silent installation on Windows
Silent installation is performed without any user interface. It can be used by network administrators to install IntelliJ IDEA on a number of machines and avoid interrupting other users.
To perform silent install, run the installer with the following switches:
/S : Enable silent install
/CONFIG : Specify the path to the silent configuration file
/D : Specify the path to the installation directory
This parameter must be the last in the command line, and it should not contain any quotes even if the path contains blank spaces.
To check for issues during the installation process, add the /LOG switch with the log file path and name between the /S and /D parameters. The installer will generate the specified log file. For example:
Silent configuration file
You can download the default silent configuration file for IntelliJ IDEA at https://download.jetbrains.com/idea/silent.config
The silent configuration file defines the options for installing IntelliJ IDEA. With the default options, silent installation is performed only for the current user: mode=user . If you want to install IntelliJ IDEA for all users, change the value of the installation mode option to mode=admin and run the installer as an administrator.
The default silent configuration file is unique for each JetBrains product. You can modify it to enable or disable various installation options as necessary.
It is possible to perform silent installation without the configuration file. In this case, omit the /CONFIG switch and run the installer as an administrator. Without the silent configuration file, the installer will ignore all additional options: it will not create desktop shortcuts, add associations, or update the PATH variable. However, it will still create a shortcut in the Start menu under JetBrains .
Install as a snap package on Linux
You can install IntelliJ IDEA as a self-contained snap package. Since snaps update automatically, your IntelliJ IDEA installation will always be up-to-date.
To use snaps, install and run the snapd service as described in the installation guide.
On Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and later, this service is pre-installed.
IntelliJ IDEA is distributed via two channels:
The stable channel includes only stable versions. To install the latest stable release of IntelliJ IDEA, run the following command:
The —classic option is required because the IntelliJ IDEA snap requires full access to the system, like a traditionally packaged application.
The edge channel includes EAP builds. To install the latest EAP build of IntelliJ IDEA, run the following command:
When the snap is installed, you can launch it by running the intellij-idea-community , intellij-idea-ultimate , or intellij-idea-educational command.
To list all installed snaps, you can run sudo snap list . For information about other snap commands, see the Snapcraft documentation.
