IntelliJ IDEA is now distributed as a single, unified product, replacing the separate Community Edition and Ultimate snaps for a simpler and more convenient experience.
From the 2025.3 release onward, the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition snap will download the unified IntelliJ IDEA instead. You can also get the unified IntelliJ IDEA directly from https://snapcraft.io/intellij-idea.
All Community Edition functionality remains free for both commercial and non-commercial use, with even more additional free features available. For those who want to take their development further, the Ultimate subscription unlocks extended tooling and comes with a free 30-day trial.
Choose your Linux distribution to get detailed installation instructions. If yours is not shown, get more details on the installing snapd documentation.
