IntelliJ setup

IntelliJ is the recommended IDE for developing Ghost - whether you're working on core, themes, or plugins, IntelliJ has full support for Node.js and several other tools that Ghost makes use of.

IntelliJ is a fully-fledged IDE, you can use it for developing Java just as easily as JavaScript. It does have a little brother WebStorm, which should work just as well for Node.js :)
