NetBeans, which has been a
prominent Java IDE for years, is featuring Node.js and JavaScript capabilities in its latest incarnation.
Version 8.1 of the open source IDE, released late last week, offers a multitude of capabilities for the
popular server-side JavaScript platform,
including a new Node.js project wizard, an enhanced JavaScript editor,
new support for running and debugging Node.js applications, and a
redesigned interface.
In the HTM5L/JavaScript realm, NetBeans 8.1 offers new
support for the Mocha JavaScript test framework and Selenium browser
framework. It features enhancements for the
AngularJS JavaScript framework
and KnockoutJS library, and Shadow DOM support is offered via a Chrome
plug-in. HTML5/JavaScript projects are recognized via package.json,
bower.json, and composer.json.
Java improvements include enhanced code completion, better
ordering rules in the Options window, and performance boosts in Java
navigation tools, such as Go to Type, Go to File, and Go to Symbol. PHP
enhancements, meanwhile, cover the Phing build system, code coverage,
and installer integration for the Symfony Web framework.
NetBeans 8.1
has been enhanced for C++ with new edits, hints, and refactorings. The
Subversion, Git, and Mercurial version control systems are supported in
remote mode for C++ development.
