NetBeans Bundle
Description
HTML5 and PHP Allows development of web applications using HTML5 and/or
the popular open source PHP programming language.
All
Includes functionalities of all NetBeans bundles.
To follow the examples in this topic, either the
Java EE
or the
All
bundle is needed.
The screenshots in this topic were taken with the
Java EE
bundle.
NetBeans may look slightly different if the
All
bundle is used,
particularly, some additional menu items might be seen.
The following platforms are officially supported by NetBeans:
• Windows
• Linux (x86/x64)
• Mac OS X
Additionally, NetBeans can be executed on any platform containing Java 7 or newer
version. To download a version of NetBeans to be executed in one of these platforms,
an OS independent of NetBeans is available.
Although the OS independent version of NetBeans can be
executed in all the supported platforms, it is recommended to
obtain the platform specific version of NetBeans for your platform.
The NetBeans download page should detect the operating system being used to
access it, and the appropriate platform should be selected by default. If this is not
the case, or if you are downloading NetBeans with the intention of installing it in
another workstation on another platform, the correct platform can be selected from
the drop down labeled appropriately enough as
Platform
.
Once the correct platform has been selected, we need to click on the appropriate
Download
button for the NetBeans bundle we wish to install; for Java EE
development, we need either the
Java EE,
or the
All
bundle. NetBeans will
then be downloaded to a directory of our choice.
