JAVA and NetBeans IDE

Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (which is now a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation)
NetBeans IDE is a  free, open-source Integrated Development Environment for software developers. Earlier Netbeans is introduced for Java but now it supports all the tools you need to create professional desktop, enterprise, web, and mobile applications with the Java platform, as well as C/C++, PHP, JavaScript, Groovy, and Ruby.
NetBeans provides a host of features including syntax highlighting, project support, code navigation, unit testing, and code completion. The code completion features save a lot of time of coders. NetBeans provide well organised Documentation, Training and Support to its users.

NetBeans supports: NetBeans Platform SDK, Java SE, JavaFX, Java Web and EE, Java ME, Java Card™ 3 Connected, Ruby, C/C++, Groovy, PHP, GlassFish Server Open Source Edition and Apache Tomcat.
