DESCRIPTION

       NetBeans  is  a  cross-platform  IDE written in Java. It supports development in Java, and
       support for other languages can be added. The whole IDE is built around a  core  framework
       with APIs, and features are implemented in the form of plugin modules. This clean, modular
       architecture makes NetBeans a good platform for  building  development  tools  and  custom
       IDEs.
