jQuery is just a library, so you don't need a full plug-in for it; all you need to do is ... <ol> <li>Go to Settings (or Preferences on a Mac)</li> <li>Go to Languages & Frameworks > Javascript > Code Libraries</li> <li>Click "Download"</li> <li>Find jQuery and select it</li> <li>Click "Download and Install"</li> </ol> After that jQuery variables (most notably <code>$</code>) should no longer have squiggly lines under them, and you should be able to auto-complete jQuery functions. And that same basic pattern should work for pretty much any other Javascript library that you want Webstorm to support (the list of downloadable libraries is fairly comprehensive).

I can't add jQuery to WebStorm, why?

Go to Settings (or Preferences on a Mac)
Go to Languages & Frameworks > Javascript > Code Libraries
Click "Download"
Find jQuery and select it
Click "Download and Install"

After that jQuery variables (most notably $) should no longer have squiggly lines under them, and you should be able to auto-complete jQuery functions. And that same basic pattern should work for pretty much any other Javascript library that you want Webstorm to support (the list of downloadable libraries is fairly comprehensive).
