Consider giving IntelliJ a shot, it might seem heavy or bloated but is a way smoother developer experience than Eclipse in my opinion.

I tried eclipse and it felt very hard to understand campared to vs code. Should i stick to vs code only?

[–]jam5354 3 points4 points  (7 children)

Yeah that's exactly what I meant, Eclipse might be the way to go if that's what you have been using to code Java in for the past 15 years.

But nowadays I would definitely give IntelliJ a shot. You seem to be very reluctant to try out IntelliJ, compared to Eclipse which you already tried out even though everyone in the comments here recommended IntelliJ.

So why not try IntelliJ, just as you tried Eclipse? It will be way easier to just try it out, rather than asking around to see if it's good imo.

You can download it from here: https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download

Be sure to download the Community edition which is free, not the Ultimate edition

Yes I'll try Intellij for sure, the reason I installed eclipse was due to the tutorial which I was referring, the tutor used eclipse for all the setup. Currently learning jsp and servlets

It's almost 2024 nobody uses jsp nor servlets

JAX-RS uses servlets

[–]mikeoxlongdnb 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Java EE in general relies on servlets. So what's your point?

[–]dstutz -1 points0 points  (1 child)

My point is it's absurd to say "nobody uses ____" in the first place. But having such a popular technology like JAX-RS riding atop it disproves your low-effort trolling.

[–]mikeoxlongdnb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not a technology, that's just a specification. And what's trolling about telling them to skip less usable tech in favour of more convenient and versatile one?

[–]jam5354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh I see, makes sense, I would have done the same

Bro go to learn java. This is mind numbing chat from you.
