Hi Hugo @HookWoods, thank you very much for your step-by-step instructions. I'd like to try it right away. Thanks again!
@HookWoods Thank you very much for this temporarily solution. It was taking too long for Jetbrains to include the new build in the plugin store.
Hi, thank you for the guide. I got the error below at first, but managed to get around it by changing version of kotlin.jvm in intellij/build.gradle.kts
// Kotlin support
//id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm") version "1.6.10"
id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm") version "1.8.0"
The error:

I made the modification you indicated and managed to make a build that works under Webstorm 2022.3.2. Here is my build. Mintlify Doc Writer-1.2.3.zip
Build created by @nitatemic works with IntelliJ IDEA 2022.3.2 also.
