Webstorm licenses
If you are using one of JetBrains authorized Gateway partners to provide remote development orchestration, the additional fees will be collected from the partner. If the remote development orchestration is done "in house" then the additional fees are charged by JetBrains. The Remote Development is available as a part of the product commercial editions.Īdditionally, based on your setup scenarios in the company, the following licensing changes may apply: There are no changes, the licensing is handled on the local machine and is covered by your existing active IDE license. If you use Remote Development, you will still only need a license for the remote IDE. Since the Remote Development solution moves closer to General Availability (GA), in the 2024.1 version release, we will have slight changes in the licensing. In this context nothing is changed from the same local WebStorm mechanism. If you use a corporate floating license server, that's your local (client) machine, which must be able to reach this server.

Product in the license on your local machine must match the remote backend IDE. The license will be checked later when you connect to the launched IDE backend. You can start the IDE backend without entering the license information since JetBrains Gateway is a free application.

If you have certain setup scenarios based on company's security regulations, check the licensing changes, and reach out to us for more information. To use remote development, you will need a license for the remote IDE. JetBrains Gateway itself is a free application.
