How do I get Java for coding?

Question

I want to start coding using Java. I have a computer with 1TB storage and 4Gb memory, i believe that that is all i need to run it?

But the real question is, what application should i use if i want to code with java, a link will be very useful, but a name should work as well... (I assume that you don't need the Java application to code java, it probably uses an other application for that...)

Answer 1

Your storage should be fine

Here are some applications:

IDE Good for beginners

BlueJ
is probably the simplest IDE; its main advantages are that it shows a diagram of how your classes relate to one another, and it has simple menus.

DrJava
is also simple; its main advantages are that it allows you to test out individual Java statements, and the editor is more powerful.

JCreator
is another simple IDE; its main disadvantage is that it only runs on Windows. The LE version is free.
