IDE configuration, enforced

Make every developer’s IDE behave the same — automatically.

Keep JetBrains IDE behaviour consistent per Git project, enforced while your team works. No shared folders, no manual setup, no more Git noise.

The problem

What is IDE configuration drift?

Every engineering team starts aligned — same IDE, same standards, same setup. Alignment does not maintain itself.

The drift spiral

A developer tweaks a setting

An SDK version changes locally

Actions on save are disabled

Inspections differ between machines

A new joiner misses part of the setup

None of this looks critical, until it is.

What it costs, week to week

Formatting noise: Code reviews filled with style changes.
CI reformats: Unexpected file changes during builds.
Inconsistent warnings: Issues appear on one machine and not another.
Legacy friction: “Works on my machine” creeping back.

It creates Git noise and subtle inconsistencies — not because developers are careless, but because nothing actively guarantees IDE configuration consistency. And it gets worse as the team grows.

The solution

Consistency, automatically enforced

Most teams rely on documentation, .editorconfig , shared .idea folders and CI checks. None of them guarantees IDE configuration consistency: they rely on discipline, and discipline does not scale.

Centralized

One dashboard to rule all IDE configurations across every project.

Automatic

Settings propagate to all developers automatically, without manual steps.

Self-healing

If a setting drifts, it's corrected automatically — on file focus.

Zero friction

New developers are fully configured from day one, automatically.

Dashboard, then IDE sync, then self-healing — in seconds.

1 / 22

Same project. Different IDE settings

Architecture

Git-based configuration

Configuration is tied to your Git repository, not to your IDE project. Your settings follow your code.

Binding settings to the .idea folder

Merge conflicts

Local overrides

Fragile synchronization

Noise in version control

Binding settings to the Git project

Multi-project consistency

Instant synchronization

Clean repositories

No .idea folder required

Absolute drift prevention

Comparison

Why enforcement beats detection

Linters and CI detect problems after code is written. Konfigomatik prevents configuration drift before it happens.

Trust

Built with engineering teams in mind

Your source code never leaves your machine.

What the plugin never touches

No source code is read

No source code is uploaded

No source code is stored

No remote code execution

What it does synchronise

IDE settings only: Only JetBrains IDE configuration metadata is synchronized.
Your intellectual property stays yours: It remains fully private and never leaves your machine.

Who it’s for

Teams that ship at scale

Not for hobby projects. Konfigomatik is built for engineering teams that care about consistency — whether they run Java, Kotlin, JS, PHP, Go, Python or Rust.

Scale beyond 10 developers
Care about consistency
Want instant onboarding
Avoid configuration chaos
Stop relying on discipline. Start relying on automation.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Isn’t this overkill for a small team?

For teams under 5 developers, manual configuration can work. Konfigomatik becomes valuable once configuration drift becomes systemic — typically around 10+ developers.

How is this different from sharing a .idea folder?

No merge conflicts, no local overrides, no fragile sync, and no accidental drift.

What happens if a developer changes a setting manually?

Konfigomatik restores the project settings automatically — typically on file focus.

What data is sent to the dashboard?

To ensure team-wide consistency, the plugin sends basic metadata: the plugin version, the IDE version and the timestamp of the last synchronization. This allows your team leads to detect outdated IDE or plugin versions and failed syncs. All data is transmitted over HTTPS.

Is this a “bossware” or tracking tool?

The Activity status in the dashboard is a health-check feature. We don’t track keystrokes, active hours, or lines of code. Its sole purpose is to help lead developers identify teammates who might be struggling with a misconfigured IDE, so everyone benefits from the same actions on save, SDK automation and so on.

Can developers override project settings?

Konfigomatik applies only the settings defined at project level. Developers remain free to customize personal IDE preferences outside that scope.

Does it work with offline development?

Your IDE keeps the last successfully applied settings. You can continue working without any interruption; the plugin resumes syncing once back online.

Is this comparable to JetBrains IDE Provisioner?

IDE Provisioner focuses on organization-wide IDE deployment and governance. Konfigomatik focuses on Git-scoped IDE consistency for growing teams — including teams under 50 developers.

How does it handle multi-repo projects?

Konfigomatik is Git-project scoped. It detects the active repository and applies the correct settings instantly. If you switch projects, your IDE settings follow the code automatically.

Stop configuration drift before it slows your team down.

Bring consistency to your IDE configuration.
