You technically don't need one, but it is <strong>HIGHLY</strong> encouraged
for you to use one. We won't cover the workflows in this document on how to
create and compile applications with Notepad or vi,
just know that you can.</p>
<p>There are four major IDEs available that work with Apache Flex. There are
other, lesser-used IDEs and plugins for other IDEs out there as well. For the
most part, the workflow is the same for

<li><strong>Run IntelliJ</strong> Run IntelliJ. You will need to start the
30 day trial, and accept the license agreement when the app runs the first
time. You will be launched into the configuration wizard. Select which VCS
Plugins you want (we suggest Git Subversion). Next, select the Web/J2EE
Plugins (We suggest Database, SQL and WebServices). Next, select the HTML
Development tools (You must select FLash/Flex, CSS, JavaScript, JavaScript
Debugger, but we suggest keeping them all selected). Finally, select which
other plugins you wish to use (Select ANT, Properties, Copyright, Coverage,
IntelliLang, Inspection Gadgets, Type Migration, UML. We suggest keeping most
of the defaults).</li>
<li><strong>Create your new project</strong> When at the welcome screen,
select "Create New Project". In the left menu, choose Flash Module under the
Other heading. Give the project a name, and select Next.</li>
<li><strong>Configure the new project</strong> On the "New Project" screen,
select Web for the target platform, and keep the rest of the options the same.
Keep the Flex SDK as [none] for this step. Click Finish.</li>
-<li><strong>Tell IntelliJ about the SDK</strong> Right click on your project
name in the Project Explorer, and click Open Module Settings. In the second
pane, click the application settings (it says (app) behind the name -- it
should have red squigglies under it). Go to the dependency tab. To the right
of the Flex SDK drop down, select New... to add the 4.11.0 SDK to the project.
Find the 4.11.0 directory you created in step 4, and select Choose. Press Ok to
return to the project. Wait for IntelliJ to index the project and the new
SDK.</li>
