Eclipse or Netbeans in Linux?

Hello everyone!
I am currently running Ubuntu 16 and both Eclipse and Netbeans are included in the repository. Can anyone give me the pros and cons of both IDE? I am in web development and currently learning C and Python through CS50x. Thank you!

Answer 3

I have used them each for a few projects of my own. this is how I decided each time: go with what others are using in the team, or if starting out fresh, go with the one most in the team are most familiar with.

that said, it is best you learn both these as well as IntelliJ Idea too. Android Studio is based on it, and many devs love it too.

Answer 4

thank you everyone for your inputs. I just found out about IntelliJ Ide now. Will definitly check it out!
