First excuse my bad english (I speak spanish, my first lang). I'am new in Java (zero experience). Could you help me with these 3 points:
1.- Can you give us (to community) a "really" brief explication about NetBeans (what is and the difference with Eclipse, pros, cons, etc)??? Who must use it??
2.- Are you thinking in making a tutorial about NetBeans???
3.- For me, and all spanish ones, the closed captions are really great. Please don't forget us.
Congratulations for your excellent work!!!!

Hi Victor. Here are some short answers to your questions.
1. NetBeans is an IDE (integrated development environment) for writing Java programs. I think it was originally developed by Sun but is now open source. Normally a Java programmer would learn either Eclipse or NetBeans (although I'm sure some Java programmers use both). Different people have different opinions about which one is "better". If you Google on "eclipse vs. netbeans" you will find many articles and posts about this subject. From what I have read, NetBeans is a very good product for Java development.
2. I have chosen to learn Eclipse and don't plan to do any NetBeans tutorials at this time. For me there are 2 major advantages to Eclipse. (1) Eclipse is the most popular by far for Java programming; and (2) Eclipse can be used for a lot of other things besides Java, so, if you know Eclipse, you have a head start on other uses for it (for example, IDE's for other languages, using it for RCP development, web development, etc.).
3. I'm glad you like the closed captions. Watch this site. There might be more good news for Spanish speakers in the near future.
Thanks for your feedback and compliments. Mark

I like both but wow eclipse has soo many features that I would like to learn eclipse because of the easy tutorials made by this person. They bridge that learning gap and make it so in 30 min I can be that much better at it than a day of reading and tinkering. I am interested in what I can do with java like useing joone java object oriented neuro engine. I would like to use eclipse and the gcc java to create AVR microcontroler applications or ARM applications but that is out of the scope of this tutorial. Sparkfun does have some eclipse and arm tutorials. I like the AVR because it is cheep large ones can have linux and WinAVR the AVR GCC chain for windows was semi easy. Now I just need to use that and eclipse in linux. Then get the java compiler to work to write in java instead.
