    Default New to programming and starting to learn Java. And need adivce on which IDE to use. Android Studios or online IDE's?

    Hi there,

    I'm just starting to learn java and would like some advice on whether to install ubuntu onto my chromebook (only laptop I have) so I can use Android studios (which my developer friend says is the way things are going) or just use an online IDE like 'cloud IDE' will the online versions be ok to get involved with collaborative open source projects like those on github?

    Any advice would be a massive help.

    Kind regards

    Swash

    I think the best choice is to use android studio or Eclipse IDE which allows you to debug in a faster way rather than using online tools.

    These IDE's also have github integration so you can configure easily!

    Android Studio is based on IntelliJ IDEA while Eclipse Android is based on...eclipse. I honestly love Eclipse, once you get used to it you can't love another IDE + it's very easy to use! Now it depends on the IDE you're used to, IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse.
