🔥 HotRulez just passed 1,000 downloads

HotRulez has officially passed 1,000 downloads on the JetBrains Marketplace. 🎉 I originally built it for a very simple reason: I wanted proper tooling for Firebase Security Rules in my IDE, but every option I found was paid. So I built my own — and released it free and open source under the MIT license. HotRulez adds proper file support to JetBrains IDEs, including Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA. Some of the features include: 🔥 Syntax highlighting 🧹 Formatting 🔎 Structural diagnostics 🧭 Symbol resolution and navigation 📚 Quick documentation 🧱 Structure view and code folding 💡 Quick fixes and member inspections Roughly two months after its first Marketplace release, the download counter crossed 1,000. That's obviously a small number compared with huge developer tools, but for a niche plugin I originally created because I personally wanted it to exist, it means a lot. More importantly, downloads continued growing after the initial launch traffic disappeared. That tells me something I find much more interesting than the number itself: Other developers had the same problem. I wrote more about the milestone, what HotRulez supports today, and what I've learned from seeing people actually use it: 👉 HotRulez crossed 1,000 downloads — and I'm pretty proud of that HotRulez is open source, and feedback and contributions are always welcome.
