Scala IDEs

After getting familiar with Scala REPL, now is the time to install IDE (Integrated Development Environment). There are options available to work with Scala in IDE. Choose what fits the best for you. Eclipse lovers can go for Scala IDE. To download:

1. Go to http://scala-ide.org/download/sdk.html.
2. You may choose from the available options suitable for your operating system.

If you're accustomed to IntelliJ IDE, you may go for the plugin download for SBT. This will enable you to create Scala applications. To get started with Scala development on IntelliJ IDE:

1. Go to https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/.
2. You may choose from the available options suitable for your operating system.
3. After installation, go to File | IntelliJ IDEA | Preferences | Plugins and search for Scala.
4. Click on Install | Apply.

With this, you're ready to work with Scala on IntelliJ IDE. If you're IDE neutral, you may choose whichever suits the best. We'll use IntelliJ IDE (Community Edition) version 2017.1 with SBT version 0.13.15 and Scala 2.12.2 version.
