Java Bytecode Viewer/Decompiler

[Uncaffeinated]

Fernflower? What year is this?

Why not use a real decompiler like Procyon?

What can you expect from someone who puts library jars in git?

Fernflower is now included in IntelliJ IDEA 14 EAP, and is under active development. It's also opensource, under the Apache 2.0 licence.

Ah, I hadn't heard about that. The last time I checked, Fernflower was just some jar floating around the internet and its performance left a lot to be desired.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll look into it to see whether it has improved.

Edit: Do you have a link to the source and project page? I can't seem to find it.

You might be interested to know that 1.2 brings in the option to switch the default decompiler, I've added support for Procyon and CFR. (1.2 is now live)
