If you are a programmer, then you would certainly fall in love with NetBeans IDE. NetBeans IDE allows you to code faster and it lessens the chances of you using the wrong syntax when programming.
What is NetBeans IDE?
The “IDE” in NetBeans IDE means “integrated development environment”. While you use it more for Java, you could also use NetBeans IDE for PHP, C, HTML5, C++, among other programming languages.
Developed by Oracle Corporation using Java, NetBeans IDE can be used on different platforms such as Windows, Linux, Solaris and OS X. So no matter what operating system it is you are using, you can always rely on NetBeans IDE. In fact, it supports the latest and the best Java technologies, including JDK 8, JDK 7, Java EE 7 with HTML5 and JavaFX 2.
This free IDE is being constantly updated providing users with an even better Java Editor, countless of features and a wide array of tools, samples and templates.
NetBeans IDE comes in these modules:
- NetBeans Profiler, which can help you track and monitor your Java applications thus allowing you to find memory hogs and optimize your application’s speed.
- GUI builder tool, which allows you to create and test Swing GUIs.
- NetBeans JavaScript editor.
The benefits of using NetBeans IDE
But why should you care?
NetBeans IDE can help you work faster and get bug-free codes. Instead of using any text editor, you can just use NetBeans IDE and have your line indented, or match words, use brackets, and even highlight portions of your source code to see if you are using it correctly. You can use coding templates, view tips and use refactoring tools.
NetBeans IDE can help you come up with bug-free codes so that you do not waste time fixing bad ones. You can simply find bugs in your code or have your code debugged.
Even with complex and large applications that have thousands of folders to keep track of endless lines of code, you will never get lost with NetBeans IDE. It can help you manage all of these efficiently. You could easily see the structure of your application and your code is very well-organized.
Also, you can easily and quickly design GUIs. It does not matter if you are using Java SE, Java EE, C/C++, Java ME or HTML5, you can just use drag and drop tools as well as intuitive editors.
Lastly, you would love just how comprehensive NetBeans IDE is, with its support for a wide range of programming languages and operating systems. If that is not enough, it is very extensible with a very active community providing you with plug-ins to help extend its functionality!
