Setting Up The Environment
There is this great IDE (integrated development environment) vs. text editor debate when it comes to programming.
There are two types of programmers; those who prefer full-featured IDE's and those who prefer a lightweight text editor. You can use your favorite when developing your extension.
- If you develop with the IDE IntelliJ IDEA, click here.
- If you decide to develop your extension with the IDE Eclipse, click here.
- If you want to use your favorite text editor, click here.
Don't know which one to choose? Try IntelliJ IDEA and see how it works for you.
If you are already familiar with your IDE or text editor and with importing a gradle project, you can skip this step and directly continue to individualize your settings.
