Editors and IDE's For Day 14 Of Javatober
Its Time To Look More At Text Editors and Code IDE's For Our Month Of Java
The above pic is a screen shot of the CodeGym plugin for IntelliJ and where I will be doing a lot of my work now.
I have been happy using Vim as my code editor for a long time and prefer not to us an IDE as I like to do everything by hand as I feel it gives me a better understanding of what the code is doing including the underlying directory structure. Unfortunately this was not going to be much use to me as CodeGym have set up a IDE plugin to use with their IDE of choice and for now, that IDE is IntelliJ.
I get the reason why you use an IDE, as to cuts through a lot of the manually work of setting up projects from scratch. The problem I have is that this usually comes with having to purchase an application, or if you are using a community version, the application changes so quickly that the instructions being used by the course can go out of date quickly. I think that is what has happened here with CodeGym.
It has taken me a few hours of trying to work out their instructions on how to install the CodeGym plugin for IntelliJ, but once I finally got it working, it seems to be pretty good.
