+Use the following checklist to ensure that you are ready to develop your custom plugins.
 
-- **IntelliJ IDEA** version 9.0 or later (either Community Edition or Ultimate) must be installed on your computer.
-- **IntelliJ IDEA CE source code** should be checked out to your local computer. This is not a requirement but will make it much easier for you to debug your plugins. For detailed instructions, refer to [Check Out And Build Community Edition](/basics/checkout_and_build_community.md).
-- **Plugin DevKit** plugin must be enabled in IDE
-- **IntelliJ Platform SDK** must be configured for your IDEA project. For more information, see [Configuring IntelliJ Platform SDK](#configuring-intellij-platform-sdk) below.
+- **Get IntelliJ IDEA CE source code** on your local computer. Getting IntelliJ IDEA CE source code is not a requirement for plugin development, but having it makes debugging your plugins much easier. For detailed instructions refer to the _Getting IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition Source Code_ section of [Check Out And Build Community Edition](https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/master/README.md). Note that building IntelliJ IDEA CE from source code is not required for plugin development.
