Answer from AI

I use the following plugins:

  • Kotlin: The main plugin for language support, syntax highlighting, autocompletion, refactoring, and debugging. Comes with the IDE.
  • Kotlin Serialization: Adds support for the kotlin-serialization compiler plugin for serialization/deserialization of objects.
  • Kotlin Coroutines: Helps with coroutine debugging by displaying stack traces and states.
  • Ktlint: Integration of the Ktlint code formatter, helps maintain a consistent code style.
  • Database Navigator / Database Tool (built-in): For working with databases, managing connections, executing queries.

Additionally, I might use:

  • Git Integration (built-in): For working with the Git version control system.
  • Markdown support (built-in): For convenient work with Markdown files.
  • Lombok (sometimes): If the project uses the Lombok library, although I prefer data classes in Kotlin style.

The choice of plugins depends on the specific project and its dependencies.
