Walkthrough

Get Intershop Studio from the Intershop Support web site

1. The Intershop Studio can be downloaded here: Product - Intershop Studio 4.

   Only verified and named contacts are authorized to download the Intershop Studio.

Extract the Intershop Studio Archive

1. Unzip the IntershopStudio.zip on your machine to a directory of your choice.

Launch Intershop Studio

1. Open the IntershopStudio.exe file in the IntershopStudio directory.
   Your own workspace with individual settings will be created automatically.

Configure Intershop Studio

1. Click on Workbench in the upper right corner.
2. Go to Window | Preferences | Intershop Studio.

3. Select the intershop.properties file under Server Configuration.

   The intershop.properties defines some properties of the Intershop server and can also be found there in the $IS_HOME directory. The Intershop Studio is designed to develop a project-specific Intershop server. A previously set up standard Intershop server in the development environment is, therefore, mandatory.
