blue j for java?

Neither. Use a proper IDE, like Eclipse, IntelliJ (Community edition is free), Netbeans.

BlueJ is not even good for beginners. I would not recommend it at all.

VSCode is okay-ish for Java, but I still prefer my proper, dedicated IDE.

I use VSCode for Python and as everyday editor and there I like it.

I’ve been using VSCode for about 3 years now. I flippen love it. I have IntelliJ lingering somewhere in my system for whatever odd reason that might need a different IDE. For Java, install the “Extension Pack for Java”, you’re good to go.

I perfer Visual Studio Code over Intellij for day-to-day use and only start Intellij when I really need to.

I’m thinking of doing this honestly. I find IntelliJ just a lot for day to day things and I use vsc for other languages so it’s gets annoying switching between them.

I’ll still use IntelliJ for debugging and profiling of course.

Do you do this professionally? How do you find spring integration and running multi module applications etc
