Netbeans is a Java IDE which(in my opinion) sucks ass, I suggest using JCreator or another. It's personal preference really.

I'm guessing you want to start programming in Java? Check out the tutorial section of this forum.

I agree with AntiNinja, Netbeans IDE sucks! I use Eclipse 3.2 and it's really good. There are a lot of 3rd-party plugins and built in features such as Ant and JUnit.

JCreator is really good too if you just want to create small application. It was my first Java IDE and I still use it because it's fast and light in size compared to Eclipse.

Could not agree more. JCreator is awesome, fast, and light. I would even use it for large projects personally. I took one glance at eclipse and decided it was way to big and heavy duty. Lots of crap I would never need.

As this has degraded to a IDE bashing discussion i will say that netbeans is a very good ide. It has a very good visual designer for creating swing apps. It has a good debugger and profiler. If you have a decent computer the intelisence works as seemlessly as it does in Visual Studio. It also has a good mobile development kit included though an add on.

Eclipse is good too, but you have to install pulgins to get it to have the same functionality of netbeans. It can also be used to program in other languages such as C++ with somple add in's. I have found that the intelisense functionality to be just as fast as netbeans.

There is also BlueJ which is not a full blown IDE but a tool designed to help you learn java.

Try a few and see what you like. They are not huge downloads and are simple to get working. See which one runs best on your computer. If you are just starting out start with BlueJ as that is what alot of universities do. When you have learned the basics and are confidant about what java is all about then move to a full blown IDE such as those mentioned in this thread. Happy codeing

If you prefer one IDE over another, that's a personal preference. One shouldn't bash another just because they prefer a different tool to get things done.
