Exercise – Installing NetBeans IDE

Download and install NetBeans IDE.

Answer

As of the time of writing, the page for downloading the latest version of NetBeans is https://netbeans.org/features/index.html.

After the download is complete, launch the installer. You might get a message that advises you to use the --javahome option when launching the installer. Find the corresponding installation instructions, and do that. The NetBeans version expected a certain version of Java, and a mismatch may cause installation or running problems.

If the installer launches without warning, you can just follow the wizard until the screen states Installation completed successfully and has the Finish button. Click the Finish button, then run NetBeans. You are ready to start writing Java code using the NetBeans IDE. After reading Chapter 4, Your First Java Project, try to create a similar project in NetBeans, and see how you like it compared to IntelliJ IDEA.
