YES! Native Zen coding in Intellij IDEA EAP 9.0.2

Posted by Ktoso on 01/03/2010 – 22:30

Zen points directly to the human heart,
see into your nature and become Buddha.

- Hakuin Ekaku (1685–1768)

For those who don’t know about zen coding (where have you been guys?) here’s a little sample:

Instead of writing:
<form class="form-comment" id="comment">
<fieldset>
<input id="myid" name="name" type="" />
<input onclick="hideMe()"
type="" />
</fieldset>
</form>

You write

form.form-comment#comment>fieldset>input#myid[name=name]>input[onclick=hideMe()]

and hit [TAB].

To understand zen, you must understand yourself. (yet I also strongly suggest watching this video)
