Akka support
summary
Live coding demo of IntelliJ IDEA’s Akka support shows concrete features: automatic variable-name suggestions from parameters, inspections that flag missing constructors and suggest/generated companion-object factory methods, and replacement of reflective Props calls with direct constructor invocation; message-type usage search finds receiver/send/ask positions across code; debugger uses async stack traces via capture-points XMLs from the JetBrains/capture-points repo and a “capture local vars” option to display message counts; features work now (Scala plugin in Ultimate, async debug in Community) and an implicit-imports feature is merging this week.
