08/10/2023, 3:16 PMHey there. General question: is Ktor usable with IDEA Community?
I know that there is a Ktor plugin for Ultimate, so wonder what disadvantages would Community have compared to Ultimate.

08/10/2023, 3:17 PMThanks Kevin. As always, it's better to not expect the business to pay for Ultimate licenses, so wanted to be sure.

08/10/2023, 3:19 PM@kevin.cianfarini did you find browsing the code difficult? Or for example, adding new endpoints.

08/10/2023, 3:20 PMHey, I’m using community in my side projects and it works just fine. The only downside I found was that every SQL file would require Ultimate to make plugins work. But I’m using SQLDelight, which comes with its own plugin, so this is fine in my case

08/10/2023, 3:30 PMI also use ktor and sqldelight. In private projects I use community edition, but at work ultimate. I don’t use the ktor plugin (I don’t see a use-case), but I really like the remote connection/data upload as well as the database support. The Sqldelight plugin still lacks many features. Also the ultimate license costs about 500€/year, this is about 2,50€ per work day and definitely a no brainer compared to the value I generate with this tool for work. And if everyone uses the CE, who would pay for the Kotlin development? 🤷🏻♂️

08/10/2023, 3:32 PMlicense costs about 500€/yearYeah I pay for my own. But prices may not be aligned in other countries where 500 dollars is a month of pay. And businesses are cutting down on extra costs too
