Nice list.

Some comments

  • If you're just starting to develop something you don't need multiple versions of JDK. Just use the latest LTS version (v. 21 currently).
  • Git is always good to have. IntelliJ IDEA has a built in git client so others aren't strictly needed at first
  • Ultimate version of IDEA (paid software) has full support for Spring (inc. Spring initializer)
  • If you run Linux podman is a good choice instead of Docker
  • For plugins I'd add sonarlint (helps with code quality)
  • I'd also add Spotless to the project for automatic formatting
