Hello
My name is Onty Bagwasi and I thought i should start this blog about java programming. I will do my best to cover most aspects of this language and write about them, the first post will be about the SDKs, the development environments you can use to develop java applications.
Linux:
gedit- is quite a good editor that can be used to write java applications
geany - this is another editor that i used for sometime to develop java applications
Windows
IntelliJ - according to me , this is the best java editor i have ever used. It is worth a try. available free here
Eclipse - this is the second best IDE in my opinion, feel free to choose any of these softwares. eclipse can be downloaded here!!
Dr Java - I started with this one, also free here. great development kit to have
notepad ++ - for those who love writing code, this is a good one to use
There may be more i havent covered like nedbeans , feel free to explore. Just remember to install JDK , which is the java compiler from sun microsystems site.
Next lesson we are writing our first java program. cheers
