SSH (new crate ide-ssh)
- Shared SSH configurations (Settings › Tools › SSH Configurations) used by
data source tunnels, deployment servers, run targets and terminals.
- Sessions with password, key pair or OpenSSH config + agent authentication,
ProxyJump, known-hosts checks with trust prompts, saved secrets.
- Askpass: credential prompts of `ssh` / `git` child processes shown in the IDE.
- Tools › Start SSH Session opens a terminal tab for a configuration.
- The database SSH tunnel moves here and can use a shared configuration.
Deployment (new crate ide-remote)
- Settings › Build › Deployment: SFTP servers, path mappings, excludes,
automatic upload on save.
- Upload / download / delete / sync with the server, Tools › Deployment
menu, Remote Host tool window for browsing and editing remote files.
Run targets
- Settings › Build › Run Targets: run configurations can run on an SSH host
("Run on"), with project sync before the run and remote interpreters.
Remote development
- New crate ide-host: the backend (projects, documents, LSP, VCS, search,
terminals, runs, debugger, tools, settings) shared by the desktop shell and
`openidea-server`, a headless server speaking JSON-RPC over stdio.
- File › Remote Development… connects to an SSH host, installs the server
(per-build folder, streamed gzip upload; the release build is downloaded
when there is none locally) and opens a remote folder in the window.
- The window routes the commands the server answers to it; streaming
channels and events are forwarded. The server takes the login shell's PATH.
The IDE you know, rebuilt in Rust.

OpenIDEA brings the IntelliJ IDEA way of working — its keymap, its tool windows, its search-everything habits — to a native app with a Rust core.
Editor, code insight, debugger, Git, terminal, database and HTTP clients, for 60+ languages. Builds for macOS, Windows and Linux.
Benchmark
Opening freqtrade (Python, ~770 files) with warm caches, median of 5 runs:
| OpenIDEA | IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2.3 | |
|---|---|---|
| Window with the project | 0.9 s | 3.1 s |
| Ready (CPU settled) | 1.1 s | 13.2 s |
| Memory (USS, all processes) | 169 MB | 2011 MB |
| CPU time until ready | 2.4 s | 47.9 s |
| Idle CPU | 4 % of a core | 7 % of a core |
| Quit | 0.3 s | 5.9 s |
A release build of OpenIDEA from main and IDEA with default settings and plugins, on
Windows 11, 32-core AMD, 62 GB RAM.
IDEA analyses Python more deeply, so "ready" doesn't mean the same work on
both sides. Both are measured from the outside, the same way: see
perf/compare to run it on your machine and projects.
