Love how the lowest 3 are Eclipse, NetBeans, and Code::Blocks

Code::Blocks is a step up from Bloodshed DevCpp, which was outdated the moment we started using it, but our teacher was a hardcore "I only need a netbook with Windows XP to program my games" kind of guy. He loved programming games for game systems that were older than him 😂. Good on him for being content to work on a 10" screen though.

Those are the 3 I was forced to use in Uni. Only one missing is Bluejay

These companies really do have a competition going for who can make the shittiest Java IDE, huh

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

At the time (pre-Jetbrains) Eclipse was pretty good. Haven't been back lately, but it was a top tier IDE.

I think the others are all closer to pet-projects, they are basically a text editor with a run button, I even wrote one myself for tcl. I just never got the chance to inflict it on some poor uni students :D
