USE_BINARY_RELEASES
Use binary IDE releases for development.
If set to false, the IntelliJ Platform Gradle Plugin uses for development IntelliJ Platform artifacts hosted on IntelliJ Maven Repository (see Locations.INTELLIJ_REPOSITORY), which are multi-OS distributions. Those artifacts are published more often, but do not bundle JetBrains Runtime (JBR) and contain files for all supported operating systems, which make the archive larger.
The binary distributions (hosted on Locations.DOWNLOAD) are OS-specific releases used eventually by end-users. Binary distribution is lower in size, contains JetBrains Runtime (JBR), but gets published less often.
