This article reviews essential IntelliJ IDEA plugins for Java/Spring developers, detailing core features, configuration tips, and trade‑offs, while warning about performance impact and recommending a practical installation order.
IntelliJ IDEA already covers about 80% of development needs, but its rich plugin ecosystem lets you fine‑tune your workflow like a custom Vim setup; this article reviews essential plugins—including AceJump, Catppuccin Theme, CodeGlance Pro, Edit‑Tabs‑Location, GenerateAllSetter, GitHub Copilot, Inspection Lens, MyBatis Log Free, Power Mode II, IdeaVim, and Rainbow Brackets—detailing core features, configuration tips, and trade‑offs to help you choose wisely.
Guardian is a lightweight Spring Boot starter that provides both anti‑repeat‑submission protection and API rate limiting; it supports annotation and YAML configuration, flexible key scopes (user, IP, global), Redis or local storage, customizable response modes, white‑list handling, and built‑in observability, making it a drop‑in solution for single‑service projects.
Espressif's upcoming ESP32‑S31 is a dual‑core RISC‑V wireless MCU featuring a high‑performance core with FPU/SIMD, a low‑power core, 62 GPIO, gigabit Ethernet, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, 802.15.4, plus a rich set of peripherals, while offering fewer multimedia interfaces than the ESP32‑P4.
This article provides a detailed walkthrough of SpringBoot plugin development, covering the benefits of modular decoupling, common implementation approaches such as Java SPI, custom configuration, Spring factories, and practical code examples that demonstrate how to create, load, and use plugins for extensible SMS services.
The ESP32‑S31 is a new dual‑core RISC‑V wireless microcontroller from Espressif featuring a high‑performance core, low‑power core, 62 GPIO, gigabit Ethernet, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, 802.15.4, GPU, VPU and extensive peripherals, but it lacks some multimedia interfaces found in the ESP32‑P4, making its media capabilities more limited while still being possibly the most powerful ESP32 SoC released.
