Unity projects (a folder with Assets and ProjectSettings/ProjectVersion.txt) are detected without a generated solution: Assets / Packages become source roots, ProjectSettings resources, and Unity's cache and build folders are excluded before they exist. A Unity pane in the Project view shows the editor version and hides .meta files, generated C# project files and caches (each can be shown again). Operations on assets under Assets keep their .meta files consistent: rename and move carry the metadata (same GUID), delete removes both, copy generates new GUIDs and updates references inside the copied group, and file-move undo and workspace edits include the metadata. Destination metadata conflicts and links inside the project are rejected before anything changes. Co-authored-by: hacbit <[email protected]>

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.
Plugins
Plugins add actions, completion, quick fixes, tool windows, custom editors, themes, file icons and languages. They run as sandboxed WebAssembly components; themes, icon themes and languages need no code at all.
Install them from Settings › Plugins, or start your own with
openidea-plugin new — see Writing OpenIDEA plugins and
the official plugins. The plugin API is still a preview.
