Eclipse

Eclipse is a full-featured IDE generally used for Java programming. If you are working on a Java project, this is a great choice.

It is available on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Eclipse is not particularly easy for beginners to start using because it is far more than a simple text editor. However, learning to program Java using Eclipse or IntelliJ is much easier than using one of the simple text editors listed previously.

Eclipse is free.
