Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. It is a solid and robust IDE for software development. 2. It has language support for almost all the programming languages like C, C++, Java, Python and JavaScript. 3. The community version is free to use for personal use. 4. It has a lot of room for extension support and integrations.
  • The Eclipse IDE is a fairly simple IDE that has many features and plugins, making it a great option for both professional and amateur programmers. I have used multiple IDEs over the years, and I personally think that for the price of ZERO dollars, it’s a fabulous option. The ability to have so many different languages makes it very flexible for those programmers who don’t just program a single language. The user base if very large, so it is easy to get help learning the software.
  • 1. Open source programming editor tool. 2. It worked for multiple programming languages (like, PHP, Java, Python, .Net) and operating system. 3. Simple layout, no complex options are provided. 4. Easily integrate with Maven. 5. Advanced debugging options 6. Good project management. 7. Easily integration of the Version Control System, GIT. 8. Boot up time is short compared to other IDE. 9. Features extension by plugins 10. Simple, which makes development fast. 11. Error notification feature is awesome and very helpful. 12. Integration with Jenkins.
  • 1. I learnt whole Java using Eclipse IDE, it was very easy for me to use it, 2. You get code suggestions as you type the code, making it easier to do coding, 3. Compilation errors are shown instantly when you write the code, like it always tells you if any variable can hold null value or if any unused import or variable is present or if any variable has not been initialized, 4. You can easily integrate SonarLint, JUnit, Cobertura etc.,
  • It is open-source with support for a lot of plugins that help you expand the scope of the IDE. It provides a single window to build your application - coding with auto completion, debugging, and even testing and deploying. I like that we can integrate Eclipse with third-party apps like GitHub, which is quite helpful. Plus, it's free!

Cons

  • 1. The user interface of the application is a bit outdated. 2. It consumes a lot of RAM while running.
  • There are some clunky things with the software. Back when I was taking a college course, my group and I had finished a piece of code and it was working on everyone’s machine but mine. (Even tho we all had the same version of eclipse, and had simply pulled the code down from GitHub). We even tried to just copy and paste but it didn’t work. I eventually had to go clear some cache in the system folders and reinstall the software before it would work.
  • According to my real life experience, there is nothing to dislike. Everything looks good.
  • If it includes Artificial Intelligence also like IntelliJ IDEA , then it will be a complete package.
  • It takes up a lot of CPU usage to run making it slow. Sometimes it also crashes while working, which can be annoying. The UI isn't beginner-friendly either, and the software support is limited.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. Easy and reliable version controlling. 2. Robust CI/CD pipeline. 3. Supports integration with various third-party applications. 4. Intuitive and user-friendly user interface. 5. Easy to use push, pull, commit and merge functionalities. 6. Free for personal use.
  • - The best thing about using GitHub as a version controlling platform is the amount of third-party integration it supports. - It gives a step-by-step tutorial to create a repository and push code on it. - It is free for personal and unlimited amount of private repos can be made. - It also allows to host website builds on its platforms for free.
  • - Specific access roles can be assigned to users. - It is free for personal use. - Creating a new repository is easy because of the detailed step-by-step tutorial. - It is reliable and secure to host private repositories. - Merge conflicts can solve directly from the UI.
  • 1. GitHub is one of the most popular sites to host code repositories and version controlling of the projects. 2. The user interface of the application is clean yet feature-rich. 3. The platform is free for personal use, which makes it pretty useful for student and freshers starting out coding. 4. It can be integrated with almost any application available.
  • These are the best part about GitHub- 1. The outsider reconciliations with GitHub are extraordinary. Azure permits us to associate straight forwardly to the GitHub repo and constantly send our code as the expert branch gets refreshed. 2. Pull demand interface takes into consideration code survey, reinforcing the designing group culture and making a way for junior engineers to develop and turn out to be more useful. 3. While managing an undertaking, utilizing GitHub to see the contrasts between a specialist's branch and expert aides the designer work productively and viably.

Cons

  • 1. I did not find any major con in the application.
  • - The user interface is a bit complex and can be tricky for beginners initially.
  • - The user interface is complex to use. - Deleting a folder or a project is a difficult and time taking process. Great tool for version controlling, but complex.
  • 1. Unless you use a git client, it is quite hard to wrap your head around it initially because of the complex commands for pushing, pulling and resolving merge conflicts.
  • These are some demerits - 1. Exchanging and overseeing branches is complicated and not excessively instinctive. 2. Downloading a specific record from the source tree is awkward and it is quite often simpler to download a speed of the whole branch. Not great.
