IDE with the Scala plugin. In this guide, IntelliJ will download Scala for you.

## Installation
1. Make sure you have the Java 8 JDK (also known as 1.8)
* Run `javac -version` on the command line and make sure you see
`javac 1.8.___`
* If you don't have version 1.8 or higher, [install the JDK](https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html)
1. Next, download and install [IntelliJ Community Edition](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/)
1. Make sure you have the Java 8 JDK (also known as 1.8) or newer:
* run `javac -version` on the command line to check the Java version,

Nit: Double check for sure but Intellij should auto handle JDK installation?

1. Then, after starting up IntelliJ, you can download and install the Scala plugin by following the instructions on
[how to install IntelliJ plugins](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/installing-updating-and-uninstalling-repository-plugins.html) (search for "Scala" in the plugins menu.)
[how to install IntelliJ plugins](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/managing-plugins.html) (search for "Scala" in the plugins menu.)

When we create the project, we'll install the latest version of Scala.
Note: If you want to open an existing Scala project, you can click **Open**
when you start IntelliJ.

## Creating the Project
1. Open up IntelliJ and click **File** => **New** => **Project**
1. On the left panel, select Scala. On the right panel, select IDEA.
1. Name the project **HelloWorld**
1. Open up IntelliJ and click **File** => **New** => **Project**.
1. Name the project **HelloWorld**.
1. Select **Scala** from the **Language** list.
1. Select **IntelliJ** from the **Build system** list.
1. Assuming this is your first time creating a Scala project with IntelliJ,
you'll need to install a Scala SDK. To the right of the Scala SDK field,
click the **Create** button.
1. Select the highest version number (e.g. {{ site.scala-version }}) and click **Download**. This might
take a few minutes but subsequent projects can use the same SDK.
1. Once the SDK is created, and you're back to the "New Project" window, click **Finish**.
1. Once the SDK is created, and you're back to the "New Project" window, click **Create**.
