IntelliJ IDEA

It is one of the most popular IDE for Java. IntelliJ IDEA is developed and managed by JetBrains. It grants quicker app development and helps in improving your code quality. You can also consider IntelliJ IDEA as a text editor with support of Java and guides you in fixing out the compilation errors while writing code.

However, if you are starting fresh in java, I would recommend you to keep yourself with notepad only. Because with a notepad, you can actually get an idea about what goes on when a java program runs. A terminal has its own extraordinary powers, trust me.

There are many developers who are using and working on these IDEs. You can Ping our JavaScript developers if you have any queries regarding JavaScript IDEs or editors.
