Title says it all :P/>
took me awhile so I would appreciate any feedback :)/>
Make sure you have the Lua plugin and add this as a library
Also restart InteliJ if it does not work.

Care to explain a little more? I googled IntelliJ but still don't understand what this is.

Edit: How would it be useful for me?

Terminology noob here. I googled ide and read around but don't know what it is in this context.

Does this mean we can write in Java?
If not, what exactly would getting this ide allow me to do?

Just think of an IDE as a really advanced text editor. This is simply a plugin for the IntelliJ IDE that (I'm guessing) adds syntax highlighting and auto-completion for CC functions.

These are all things you could put in the OP to give people more information… More information is always good…

Library does not have support for inspecting code. It would be nice if this feature was added
