We already created a VSCode extension which include oxc.oxc-vscode and vitest.explorer VSCode extension.

The same extension pack is missing for IntelliJ/JetBrains Editors.

Suggested solution

Asked ChatGPT if there is a concept like VS Code extensionPack for IntelliJ.

1. Create a normal IntelliJ plugin

You can create it using the IntelliJ Platform Gradle Plugin or the plugin template.

Typical structure:

my-meta-plugin/
 ├─ build.gradle.kts
 ├─ settings.gradle.kts
 └─ src/main/resources/META-INF/plugin.xml

2. Declare plugin dependencies in plugin.xml

Add the plugins you want to bundle as required dependencies:

<idea-plugin>
    <id>com.example.my-plugin-pack</id>
    <name>My Plugin Pack</name>
    <vendor email="me@example.com">Me</vendor>

    <!-- Dependencies -->
    <depends>org.intellij.plugins.markdown</depends>
    <depends>com.jetbrains.rust</depends>

</idea-plugin>

When users install your plugin:

IntelliJ checks whether these plugins are installed

If not, it automatically installs them

So your plugin acts like a plugin pack.
