Re: IntelliJ 2026.3 GWT Plugin state

I've bitten the bullet and created a GWT-specific plugin based on the open-sourced obsolete plugins repo, but just including GWT and adding as many fixes/improvements as I can find.

You can take a look here:

https://github.com/randomeizer/intellij-gwt-plugin

Initial `v362.0.0` plugin release is basic, should be an updated version shortly with more fixes/compatibility improvements etc. You can get an idea from the issue tab.

Thanks for sharing the repo! It works great on macOS with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.

Thanks,

Then, as Jens said "In IntelliJ you can then install the plugin from disk. The option is hidden behind the gear icon on the plugins window.".  Installed it from:

...\intellij-obsolete-plugins\gwt\build\distributions\GWT-262.0.0.zip

It installed fine.  However, I'm on the IntelliJ Unified version, and it said it only works with Ultimate.

So I pointed AI at the code, and asked it to modify it to work for the Unified version, just for the GWT coding assistance (not for the GWT running options, as I use Maven).  And it did!

I now have the GWT plugin working in IntelliJ Unified version.  🎉

I haven't tried building the plugin so far but if you are feeling adventurous you can try editing https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-obsolete-plugins/blob/master/gwt/gradle.properties and change platformVersion from 2026.2 to 2026.3

If you then build the plugin it should be compatible with 2026.3 beta. In IntelliJ you can then install the plugin from disk. The option is hidden behind the gear icon on the plugins window.

Hi everyone,

I am currently testing IntelliJ 2026.3 Beta and noticed that the GWT plugin is not compatible with this version.

I found a ticket regarding moving GWT to obsolete plugins [1], but I am unsure of the current status [2]. Could anyone share insights on the future of this plugin? I primarily rely on it for UI binding support.
