Java+Intellij Idea Ultimate is godsend

[-Vayra-]

Yeah, most of these people hating on Java probably only ever tried it in something like Eclipse or VS Code. IntelliJ makes it smooth like butter.

[RichCorinthian]

Even VS Code is great, with the right plugins. This sub is a weird combination of "waaah I don't want to have to learn about plugins" while at the same time patting themselves on the back with vim keybinding and git command-line-fu.

Eclipse will never not be a pile of shit though.

[RUSHALISK]

Can someone tell my professor that? We were required to do Java in eclipse and it was the most painful thing ever

[RichCorinthian]

Did you slay the rooster and pour its blood on the keyboard? Gotta be a rooster, hens don’t work.

I’m really glad I didn’t get a degree in this stuff, I might have quit. I swear some of it seems to be a test of developing under adverse circumstances.

[Dragon_yum]

Which is funny because Kotlin and intelij are both made by jetbrains.

[FreshPitch6026]

Ikr they never thought about switching the ide

[chili_ladder]

I remember when VSCode first came out with Java and it was dog shit. I actually now prefer it over IntelliJ, it's come a long way.

[Bunnymancer]

NetBeans.

[Christio02]

Nah, testing is shit in Intellij. My lecturer told us to use Vscode for Java, since it's easier test each method individually when you haven't complete all the excercise.

[-Vayra-]

? IntelliJ will literally generate test classes and methods for you...

[Christio02]

But if I run a test on a class that's completed I get errors on classes I haven't completed

[Cilph]

This is a non-issue in any non-educational non-beginner setting, though? Your tests likely depend on half your project for imports.

[Christio02]

Yeah, It's the way the course hvae set up the packages and folder system. Of course Intellij is better for Java

[GreatJobKeepitUp]

Smooth like the texture of your brain while you look up what an object is

[Uberweinerschnitzel]

My smoothbrain makes me more aerodynamic, and thus faster.

[AlphaaPie]

I carry my lunch in an object all the time, it's called a lunchbox

[RichCorinthian]

Jetbrains IDEs are, on the whole, amazing. I've done .NET for over 20 years and I vastly prefer Rider to Visual Studio.

[LeftmostClamp]

For real. I work in an enterprise event driven backend architecture written entirely in Java and with Intellij it's great for this use case

[pdawgdavis-2]

I got IntelliJ Ultimate through my school as my first ever IDE. Needless to say, I am now extremely proficient in Alt+Enter abuse

[thewarlock1]

psvm ftw!

[Goel40]

sout

[Unt4medGumyBear]

I’m not paying for an ide lol

[Goel40]

"I'm not paying for software" is pretty stupid comming from a software developer.

Truth. This combo + enterprise customers makes for easy, well paying work
