java - If I've Downloaded JDK, Do I Need to Download Eclipse Too? -


i'm pretty new programming , java, i'm not sure. know jdk has own compiler , jre need eclipse?

you need jre run java code on computer , jdk write it. however, many programmers tend prefer ide (integrated development environment) use along side writing code, debugging, , execute more efficiently. eclipse example of one, , 1 of many used/preferred ide's (in opinion @ least) out there. however, others exist too:

  • drjava
  • netbeans
  • bluej
  • jcreator

these editors more preferred because make easier learn / write code. however, may choose normal text editor (like sublime, atom, textedit, notepad, textmate, etc..) or command line. mac & linux have "vim" built in command line editor tend prefer.
