title: Which IDEs support development in jq?
body: <p>I am using IntelliJ as an IDE.
  Unfortunately, IntelliJ does not support jq.
  Language injection is not offered and I can't find a suitable plugin.
  I searched for &quot;IDE support for jq&quot; or similar many times and surprisingly this brings up nothing useful.</p>
  <p>Sometimes I write jq programmes that are not just oneliners.
  I always struggle with getting the syntax right, for example adding the right amount of brackets in the right place and manually refactoring code into functions is painstaking.</p>
  <p>IntelliJ at least offers a hotkey to jump to the matching bracket (Shift-Ctrl-M), which works in any text file and displays the block enclosed by a pair of brackets in colour in the editor.</p>
  <p><strong>Are there any special IDE features that make editing jq programs easier?</strong>
  For example, a folding of code blocks based on matching brackets
  or a bracket selection feature similar to Ctrl-W for selection in Java would be very helpful. Also, it is important for me to indent the jq code properly to make it more understandable. <strong>Is there any generic support for formatting code?</strong></p>
  <p>I don't expect complete refactorings, but any advice on useful editor features that make life easier as a jq programmer is highly welcome.</p>
