Dear IntelliJ users,

I’m happy to announce a new version of SonarLint for IntelliJ!

The new 10.5 version of SonarLint for IntelliJ **empowers teams’ collaboration** by introducing the possibility of [sharing Connected Mode setup among contributors](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarlint/intellij/team-features/connected-mode-setup/#first-time-connection-setup-for-shared-binding). We identified a real friction point regarding the Connected Mode configuration for teams. Each contributor needed to individually setup a connection on their initiative.

We simplified the process by giving the possibility to share the binding of a project in order to **spread the connection to other team members**. It will automatically generate a configuration file at the project root that will need to be committed to the repository.

When standalone users import the project with the SonarLint Connected Mode configuration, they will be able to use it and **automatically bind the project**.

On **Java** , we introduced [19 Java 21 and new sustainability rules](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SONARJAVA/versions/15503/tab/release-report-all-issues?isReleaseNoteModalOpen=true). We also [improved a set of rules](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SONARJAVA/versions/15552/tab/release-report-all-issues?isReleaseNoteModalOpen=true%20https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SONARJAVA/versions/15552/tab/release-report-all-issues?isReleaseNoteModalOpen=true) and did some bug fixes.

Regarding **JS/TS** , we added [4 accessibility rules](https://github.com/SonarSource/SonarJS/releases/tag/10.14.0.26080). I would like to draw your attention to the fact that we are **dropping the support of NodeJS v16** , so please update your version if needed, you can check the announcement [here](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/node-js-v14-no-longer-supported-v16-stops-early-next-year/105428).

On **Python** , we added 14 rules. If you want more information, you can check the release notes [here](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SONARPY/versions/15512/tab/release-report-all-issues?isReleaseNoteModalOpen=true) and [here](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SONARPY/versions/15531/tab/release-report-all-issues?isReleaseNoteModalOpen=true).

You can find the release notes for the version [here](https://sonarsource.atlassian.net/projects/SLI/versions/15519/tab/release-report-all-issues).

Thank you for your continued support!
