An unexpected editor

Synopsis

For years now I’ve been developing Moodle code in Notepad++, because of its tabs and understanding of line endings / Byte Order Mark (as I develop on Windows). But recently I reflected about what I used to use and that was an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), so I’ve been trying a few out. In this process, I’ve rediscovered Netbeans, which is now an Apache project ( netbeans.apache.org ), and thought it would be a good thing to share my thoughts.

All screenshots are from Netbeans 12.5 on Ubuntu 20.0.4.
