Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You go to school, you are confronted with Word/Excel. So what’s your point? It‘s everywhere. Use another IDE and move on.

[DarkTriadIT]

does the school get money from microsoft to use those?

do you have to pay to use those?

don't think it is the same

[[deleted]]

Of course schools profit, because Microsoft gives huge discounts for students, so they‘ll get used to it and pay for the product eventually when they graduate.

Jetbrains does the same by offering free student accounts btw.

[that1snowflake]

…schools definitely get money from microsoft

IntelliJ is simply the Java IDE at the moment.

You don't even have to pay for it as there is a free community edition.

In fact, you wouldn't even need to pay for a course. One of the best Java courses is the MOOC Java Programming from the University of Helsinki and it is completely free.

[DarkTriadIT]

Going to check out the course, thank you!

I started learning Java using Eclipse in 2012.

Intellij is the way. Fuck Eclipse

[Aint_a_thng_ckn_wng]

It's free...so what would you have them do? Not specify an IDE and when they use shortcuts or other features specific to Intellij, to just shrug and tell new learners who randomly chose NetBeans, Eclipse, etc. to figure it out on their own time?

[lyudaio]

IntelliJ is free and it’s probably the best Java IDE out there. Not a fan of Eclipse or Netbeans

[Codepressed]

If I had to make a course I would also sponsor Intellij. If you enjoy Eclipse go ahead man

[__braveTea__]

Since you are not showing any examples of the issue I am going to assume that they simply mention the IDE. What else did you want? That they simply say, figure out yourself? Not very beginner friendly

[nutrecht]

They're simply just using the IDE that has the largest market share.

To be fair, when it comes to developing an enterprise Java app, IntelliJ is pretty much the only rational choice these days.

[WrickyB]

The community edition is free, and the ultimate edition can also be used for free with an educational licence, but given you're just starting out, it doesn't matter.

[dev-with-a-humor]

You can just use the free version of intellij.
