Hi Chenliang, most of the Flink committers are using IntelliJ, because it can better handle the mixed Java/Scala modules. I personally would also recommend you to do so.
If you can't select a maven project, then you should check whether the maven plugin was installed correctly. You can see which plugins you've installed going to "Help ==> Installation Details". There you can verify if you've installed the maven plugin.
