You can synchronize code (both Java code and JSP code) in the IntelliJ environment with the code in the AEM JCR. For example, assume that you have code in IntelliJ that represents a JSP component. You can synchronize the code in the IntelliJ IDE with code in the AEM JCR using Vault. That is, you can check in code you write in IntelliJ into the AEM JCR. Likewise, if you make a change in AEM using CRXDE lite, you can checkout the code that results in the code in IntelliJ being updated. To synchronize code, you configure the vault tool (this is shown later in this development article).
The following illustration shows an AEM application within the IntelliJ IDE.
This article walks you through how to build an AEM application using IntelliJ and synchronize the code with the code in the AEM JCR. In addition, it discusses how to setup AEM for remote debugging.
