As a fun project and to solve a real problem I had with using the Builder pattern in my code I recently released an Intellij plugin to tackle the issue. I started with the point given out by the author of the lombok plugin ( https://github.com/rzwitserloot/lombok/wiki/FEATURE-IDEA:-%2... ) and put in some of my ideas. This is just the first release so if anyone finds it useful and decides to try it out I would be more than glad to receive any feedback.

Why would you use this when there's Lombok?

Thanks for expressing the concern. First of all it is planned to be integrated with Lombok. Secondly Lombok does not support what this plugin provides. Thirdly, not everyone uses Lombok.
