## How to get started
36+
37+
The event comes as a zip-file in form of a **EduTools course**,
38+
which is a plugin for IntelliJ.
39+
40+
To participate in this event, you need:
41+
42+
* [IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download) (the free Community Edition is more than enough)
43+
* [EduTools plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/10081-edutools)
44+
* [Java 17](https://adoptium.net/) (or newer)
45+
* Download the event from [ElevatorEventTogetherJava.zip](https://github.com/Together-Java/ElevatorEvent/releases)
46+
47+
There is also a special version of IntelliJ that comes with EduTools
48+
pre-installed already, [IntelliJ IDEA Edu](https://www.jetbrains.com/edu-products/download/#section=idea).
49+
50+
Once you got that, import the zip-file as course into EduTools:
