Although the true test of a programmers ability is by using the command line, NetBeans is a very good IDE and allows one to incorporate other features.
The features include C++, PHP, Java Card, Maven, etc. Each of these require a compiter to be installed.
Which windows based C++ compiler would be the best with the simplest installation?
Which PHP version would be better to install and would this be from PHP.org or some other source?
When Java is activated are all the features such as Maven, Java Card, JavaFX, Debugger, Profiler and GUI available?
