**Reviewed Date:** February 06, 2023

  ### 8. Google Cloud Tools for IntelliJ Review

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 02, 2023

**What do you like best about Google Cloud Tools for IntelliJ?**

- It definitely makes it very easy to develop your projects using Google Cloud Library. I was able to debug and test my code very quickly. It has a rich set of features. I am yet to explorer all of them though.
- Integration with IntelliJ was quite easier (compared to some other builder tools or IDEs I have used) but of course after initial learning curve I describe below

**What do you dislike about Google Cloud Tools for IntelliJ?**

- GCT for IntelliJ comes with a steep learning curve. It took me a lot of time to create my first two-three hello world projects with this. Once you know your way around, then the further projects are easier to build. However, I feel they should should provide more documentation or example projects for begineers to start with.
- This is not on Google, however, I also feel that the community support is less compared to other builder tools. For some of my questions, I could not find answers anywhere online and for one of the question I posted, no one answered my question.

**What problems is Google Cloud Tools for IntelliJ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- It reduces overall development time by making it easier to test and debug the code. This was a problem for me earlier.
- I absolutely loved the rich keyboard shortcuts. It is saving me ton of time.

At least for me, it took me a while to understand what " skaffold" stands for. However, it was easy to deploy my application once I got it. I also feel like it should have more documentation available.

**What problems is Google Cloud Tools for IntelliJ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It provides an integration of Google Cloud with the intellij, and it's convenient to use Java and add it to our Clouds Apps. For a matter of testing, we also used it to build Web Applications, but only for a short amount of time
