Study Notes
Overview of Integrated Development Environments (IDEs)
- IDEs are software applications that provide comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development.
- IDEs consist of a source code editor, build automation tools, and a debugger.
- Some IDEs contain the necessary compiler, interpreter, or both, while others do not.
- IDEs are designed to maximize programmer productivity by providing tight-knit components with similar user interfaces.
- IDEs can reduce the configuration necessary to piece together multiple development utilities.
- Tighter integration of all development tasks has the potential to improve overall productivity beyond just helping with setup tasks.
- IDEs have a class browser, an object browser, and a class hierarchy diagram for use in object-oriented software development.
- IDEs provide syntax highlighting, code completion, automated refactoring, integrated version control, debugging, and code search.
- IDEs are used for visual programming, where an IDE is generally required.
- Some IDEs support multiple languages, while others provide support for alternative languages through plugins.
- Unix programmers can combine command-line POSIX tools into a complete development environment.
- A web integrated development environment (Web IDE), also known as an Online IDE, is a browser-based IDE that allows for software development or web development.
