That’s it for the most notable highlights. You can also find the syntax-only support for TypeScript 3.8 features in the latest bug-fix update for WebStorm 2019.3, WebStorm 2019.3.3. The stable version of Webstorm 2020.1 will have TypeScript 3.8 bundled. To preview this support, update your project TypeScript version to 3.8. WebStorm 2020.1 will introduce full support for the new TypeScript 3.8 features, such as type-only imports/exports, private fields, and top-level `await`. You’ll also see where the symbol is defined.Īnother improvement is that WebStorm will now properly render the information added using custom JSDoc tags and use it for the documentation popup. In particular, WebStorm will now show you information about the type and visibility of the symbol in the same way that it does in the quick definition popup. Since this change makes the documentation popup much more visible, we’ve been working on making the information shown in it more actionable. We recently made WebStorm show the documentation popup when you hover over a symbol so you can find information about the specific symbols faster.

For the full list of issues fixed in this update, see the release notes. Here are some of the highlights of WebStorm 2020.1 EAP #6 (build 201.5985.33). Important!
