Distribution of JVM Desktop Applications
IntelliJ uses a ton of custom widgets and styles, and nowadays even a custom JVM build to look the way it does. And on Linux, fonts in IntelliJ are hit-and-miss in my experience.

I sure hope it uses tons of custom swing widgets.
That's something the Java team never got right: the cross-platform look&feels looked just awful.

Swing was always customisable. You didn't have to use an existing look and feel or built in components
