The replacement of JSP by Thymeleaf in Spring is great! I like it very much. But library is new and IDEs are suffering lack of support of it. Can anyone suggest plugins or extensions for popular IDEs, such as Netbeans, Eclipse, IntelliJ, which supports syntax highlighting, autocomplete and error checking. Or does anybody know, may be this modules are in active development now?

While Thymeleaf is more of a template engine for server-side application development. But Thymeleaf's popularity is on a steady rise. The developer community is slowly moving away from 'once a common' MVC framework for Javascript-based development.
Thymeleaf offers a set of Spring integrations that allow you to use it as a fully-featured substitute for JSP in Spring MVC applications.
Thymeleaf is a server-side Java-based template engine for both web and standalone environments, capable of processing HTML, XML, JavaScript, CSS and even plain text.
Note that, although this article –and the corresponding example app– uses the Spring Framework, Thymeleaf can also be used for processing email templates in an application without Spring.
There is an official Thymeleaf plugin for eclipse: https://github.com/thymeleaf/thymeleaf-extras-eclipse-plugin
Support for IntelliJ IDEA has been requested and is a popular ticket now, but there are no news so far about any plans to really add it: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEABKL-6713
Disclaimer, due to StackOverflow rules: I am thymeleaf's author.

IntelliJ IDEA 14 is officially released with Thymeleaf support for code completion, navigation, finding usages, rename refactoring, 'Create message' quick-fix, and Spring MVC integration. For details see https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsnew/
