For learning Java should I use eclipse IDE or cursor?
I'm new to Java and looking for an easy-to-use IDE. Should I choose IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or VS Code? What are the pros and cons of each for beginners?
This semester at my university we are going to be learning Java and i was wondering what IDE i should use - up until now i've used VS and VS Code and dipped into programming on Ubuntu both directly and with WSL.
As far as i've seen Intellij and Eclipse are recommended for Java, but i was wondering if coding on VS code or Ubuntu can offer me a faster learning curve experience or will slow me down?
What are your recommendations?
My great university decided to teach us Advanced Numerical Analysis in Java despite never teaching us Java beforehand. I know basic mathlab, don't know anything about Java and I have to learn it by myself in a very short time (weeks). My professor recommended me an Editor from 2000s that is obviously outdated. What are my options? Sorry if this is not the proper place to ask this.
What is the best free IDE for learning Java?
I'm a minor and yet don't have money, so I can't purchase any subscriptions and all but what would be a great free IDE for coding with Java? Like I can make my Minecraft Client with it? I know VS Code but people say it's a lightweight editor, not fully IDE.
Any tips on other ways to setup an environment for JAVA development? Thank you guys!
What's the difference between using an IDE like Eclipse and using a text editor like Atom when making Java programs?
Does the IDE make it easier in any way? Does it pinpoint flaws in your program and tell you why something might not be working the way its supposed to? Why do people even choose to use IDEs as opposed to using text editors?
I'm new to Java, got a background in Javascript. I'm finding Java really difficult because even the smallest errors will lead to 100 other errors and the error messages you get in the compiler are very hard to interpret and figure out.
Would I benefit from using a IDE?
Hi, I am trying to learn Java.
I'm probably going to learn it on both Mac and Windows.
For Mac, is there any lightweight IDE recommendation you guys have?
Then, for Windows, is it possible to use Notepad++ or is it recommended for java? I am working through a textbook "Programming and Problem Solving with Java".
I like Notepad++ because it is very lightweight, and I have past experience from botting Diablo II using it.
Best!
I have been using vscode for python, but now in school they are going to teach us POO in java, so i woder if a can keep using vscode or is a better option like netbeans or eclipse.
About a week ago I posted a thread in this sub asking for good resources to start learning Java, and I got several really good answers. I have decided to go with Big Java for the moment, and if I decide that I like Java and wish to continue learning it I will buy some more resources. But I am struggling with it :(
All of my limited programming experience has been Matlab and Python. Disregarding Matlab, which was for a class, Python is a scripting language. I can open my text editor, type my function/program and then just run it like that. But when I try Java it seems so much more complicated :( I have to make a project, following special naming conventions which I don't really understand, then make a class inside the project, find a way to compile it, and then run it to see if the code is working. This is very complicated compared to Python, and Big Java doesn't go into much detail about it. It just tells you to use your preferred development environment and expects me to know how to use it.
Can anyone recommend a good IDE for Java? Hopefully it is simple to use. I currently have BluJ on my computer but I don't know if that is a good one to use or not. Also, I apologize for not posting this in r/learnJava but last time I posted there I didn't get any responses due to the small userbase
BlueJ makes sense for beginners, since you can try out code easily in it. Once you have experience, you can switch to any of the big 3 IDEs (Eclipse, IntelliJ, Netbeans). They all provide similar features, so you shouldn't worry too much which you use. Though if you're going to be doing any Android development, you might as well go with IntelliJ.
I'm going to be that guy.
If you're learning Java an ide is only going to confuse you. Ide's have several thousand features. Your only going to be using 2, compile and run. You're going to be writing lots of short programs not large projects. All these extra project steps and files will just add to the barriers of learning.
Just grab notepad++ open a command prompt, use Javac to compile and just Java to run and your good to go.
I have learned Java few year back but never really applied that learning and never did any projects. Now I want to learn and use Java practically for my career since I have been part of IT companies for a while now. If someone can help me with these questions
-
If I use VS code instead of eclipse or IntelliJ, will that make any difference?

What are good sources to learn Java with practical approach?
I am currently learning JAVA and I have a mid-range laptop, I need a lightweight IDE to solve problems and to work on. I have used IntelliJ but it is heavy, is there any lightweight best IDE?
I used VScode for a few days recently and it was smooth and was running code fast. Mostly I use intellij and I feel it takes a lot time to run basic programs also. Is it the same with u?
Intellij Ultimate
Once you're working with larger projects IntelliJ is simply better than VSCode. For super simple beginner code it can be a bit slower, but the better tools make up for the slower interface as soon as your projects grow beyond a few classes. Neither of the two java plugins for VSCode offer the same level of features that IntelliJ does, and both are known to randomly fail in weird ways.
I always use vscode for a pretty long time cuz i code in multiple lanugage like python, c/c++ JS, css, and html and i really like it.
I plan on trying to learn Java and the genral consensus is that IntelliJ is way better than VsCode for Java. some even say eclipse would be better than Vscode. What features would i be missing from intellij if i were to use VSCode for Java.
I also might try learning spring cuz its pretty popular backend framework. IntelliJ community does not have support for it while VScode has a plugin for that so I'm a bit lost. I also dont want to pay for IntelliJ Ultimate to enjoy the convenience.
Hey All! I am a frontend dev who typically uses VScode but am expanding into backend and starting Java. The course I am following suggests using Eclipse, but I also know Java works in VScode. Anyone use VScode? Are there clear benefits to Eclipse?
Thanks for your help!
Hello all, In my CS class I'm learning Java and I'm having trouble looking for a good IDE for it. I'm used to having VS Code but seeing VS Code not having a Java option I want something similar to it. Thank you
Edit: I've did more research on getting Java working on VS Code for Linux and saw it wasn't like how I'm used to by installing example: Python extension. I had to install more extensions but now I'm able to write Java on VS. Thank you all :)

Hi! I'd like to know which IDE I should use for Java and C++: Eclipse or Visual Studio.
So I can continue learning Java and start C++ later because I have been using jGraps for school and I want to move to a different one for my personal projects.
