How does it work with Webstorm

[vjau]

Hi,
i have tried to make this work with Webstorm, but nothing seems to happen.
I have installed the plugin, i go trought jsx or tsx file, but i don't see anything special, no popup, no menu.
Am i missing something ?
Webstorm 2001.3.3

Hi @vjau, sorry to hear! Do you see a "Preview.js logs" bottom panel at all? What OS are you using?

[vjau]

No panel at all. The only proof that the plugin is installed is when looking in the plugin dialog.
I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS

Hi @vjau, I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on a virtual machine and can confirm that it works for me, but it might be something to do with your project.

Could you try cloning https://github.com/fwouts/hungry, running yarn install and opening design/HeroHeader/HeroHeader.tsx to see if Preview.js works with that project?

[vjau]

Sadly, it doesn't work either with this repo.

Could you share what version of node and npm you use?

[vjau]

I have found something, for some reason, node remote interpreter plugin was disabled. When enabling it and restarting it i see preview js log window, which complains about npm not being at version 7. I will try that.

For future reference, I've added some documentation: https://previewjs.com/docs/platforms/jetbrains
