Is there an ide for Java that a weak laptop can handle?

Question

Java

I want to learn Java, but I have a weak laptop. I tried Inteleji idea - it hung. Please advise the most low-consumption ide so that I myself do not sort through each one.

Answer 1

Eclipse for example.

Answer 2

Eclipse, and better than the old version, I have Eclipse Juno, I write in it for Android (ADT plugin) and rarely for Windows, the functionality is completely enough for Android, suitable for AppCompat v7 (Material) and for JNI and any other technology if deep enough to master and "fasten" it, plus it is possible to create your own plugins or change the existing ones and the IDE itself, correcting their errors and shortcomings, only 2 GB of RAM is still not enough for Android.
NetBeans is pretty lightweight too.
When I need to run something more "heavy", like Android Studio or the new Eclipse, I rent a VPS, with a 2.2 or 3.4 GHz processor, from two to four cores, three are optimal, and in principle eight or even more are possible.

Answer 3

VIM is invincible! You would probably have to spend from 30 minutes to several hours in the input-ahead settings. But the result would be the same, because. it is the analysis of your code and the code of all dependencies that devours all available resources. And so, if any IDE is suitable to disable this, I think the Idea from Jetbrains would immediately lose its appetite and consume resources no more than Notepad ++

Answer 4

Manually if

Answer 5

vim + javac

Answer 6

If you need IDE functionality, go for the big three: IDEA, Eclipse, NetBeans.
If it's still bad then:
Sublime text - huge community support, tons of plugins, unpretentious in terms of resources.
notepad++/ Geany if at all seams with productivity.

Answer 7

NetBeans, it works quietly without brakes on my working computer (core2duo + 1.5 GB of RAM + ancient ide broom). In addition, many points are out of the box and work in a simplified way like the same assembly in a jar with a manifest and the necessary libs nearby.

Answer 8

And how weak? I also howled not very much, but I pulled the idea.

Answer 9

BlueJ

Answer 10

Netbeans worked without problems on AMD Mobile + 1.5 GB RAM + xubuntu 14.04
