Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • It's integration is awesome with other tools. The best feature of this product is source control management like GitHub and other version control tools.
  • It supports many frameworks. Good support for multi language such as Java, JavaScript, PHP, C.
  • Cons

  • I have unfortunately enough been forced to learn through Netbeans and can honestly advise any willing soul to listen not to install it.
  • Real time code checking frequently fails leaving red or yellow underlining for non-existent (or fixed) problems.

  • Pros

  • As a Java developer this IDE is my all-time favorite. I highly suggest the paid version which adds many cool features, but even the community edition is so powerful and pleasing to the eye.
  • It integrates perfectly with Android and supports Kotlin out of the box.
  • Cons

  • I dislike importing from the git. It is very hard to find space as all your projects can easily get mixed into one another.
  • Periodically need to reinstall it due to failure of plugins. The software just fails to start and then need to remove plugin directory, install everything again etc.
