Open Source Java Integrated Development Environments (IDE) for Mac

IntelliJ Community is the open source upstream of JetBrains’ IntelliJ IDEA, forming the core of a powerful, extensible, and intelligent development environment. It provides foundational features like a robust editor with code completion, syntax highlighting, refactoring tools, version control integrations, terminal, debugger, and plugin architecture. Since it’s open, community developers can contribute to language supports, UI tweaks, and platform enhancements. From this base, JetBrains builds full editions (Ultimate) by layering proprietary features for enterprise frameworks and integrations. IntelliJ Community supports multiple JVM-based languages (Java, Kotlin, Scala, Groovy) and serves as a host for plugin ecosystems that add support for web, database, and cloud tooling. The project emphasizes performance, modularity, and a responsive user experience, maintaining a codebase that balances long-term maintainability with cutting-edge developer features.

Apache NetBeans is much more than a text editor. It highlights source code syntactically and semantically, lets you easily refactor code, with a range of handy and powerful tools. Apache NetBeans provides editors, wizards, and templates to help you create applications in Java, PHP and many other languages. Apache NetBeans can be installed on all operating systems that support Java, i.e, Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and BSD. Write Once, Run Anywhere, applies to NetBeans too.

PyDev is a Python Development Environment (Python IDE plugin for Eclipse).

Processing is a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. Since 2001, Processing has promoted software literacy within the visual arts and visual literacy within technology. There are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use processing for learning and prototyping. The core Processing software is augmented by libraries and tools contributed through the community. These inventive extensions are a bright future for the project. We have a list of Contributed Libraries and Contributed Tools posted online. These contributions can't be underestimated. The Processing Development Environment makes it easy to write Processing programs. It’s free and open source! Read the tutorial, which will guide you through the basics of Processing.

RStudio is a powerful, full-featured integrated development environment (IDE) tailored primarily for the R programming language but increasingly supportive of other languages like Python and Julia. It brings together console, editor, plotting, workspace, history, and file-management panes into a unified interface, helping data scientists, statisticians, and analysts to work more productively. The IDE is cross-platform: there are desktop versions for Windows, macOS and Linux, as well as a server version for remote or multi-user deployment via a web browser. In addition to code editing and execution, RStudio offers extensive support for reproducible research via R Markdown, notebooks, and integration with version control systems like Git and SVN. Package development is built in, with tooling for building, checking, and testing R packages, plus integration with documentation tools, CRAN submission workflows, and project templates.

The Whole Platform is a technology for engineering the production of software. We provide an Eclipse based Language Workbench for developing, manipulating and transforming languages using a model driven approach.

CP Editor is designed for competitive programming. It helps you focus on your algorithms and automates the compilation, execution and testing of your code. It can fetch test cases from different platforms and submit solutions to Codeforces. It automates all that's reasonably possible and allows you to purely focus on your code. Say no to manual efforts of running and testing your code against expected outputs. It can fetch test cases automatically from almost all competitive programming sites. No more copy-pasting! With a single click, you can run your code on multiple test cases and get verdicts. Thanks to CF tools, It can submit your solution directly to codeforces and show you verdict without leaving the editor.

Eclipse comes with an internal diff / compare editor, but if you prefer a third-party one, this plugin opens an external merge or diff tool for you. After you open two versions of a file in the internal eclipse compare editor, this plugin either opens an external diff tool automatically or you can choose that this plugin opens the external diff tool after you press a button in the toolbar of the internal compare editor. Furthermore the plugin can (optional) format java code before the compare. This simplifies the compare if the code of 2 versions of a file is different formatted.

Eclim is a set of eclipse and vim plugins to integrate the two projects.

This Eclipse plugin help you to create, edit and verify your GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) and NVidia CG vertex and pixel shaders directly inside the Eclipse IDE. Each shader can be edit in an editor with syntax color with error/warning markers.

Cloud workspaces for development teams. One-click Docker environments to create workspaces with production runtimes. Team onboarding and collaboration with workspace automation and permissions letting devs sync their desktop IDE or use our gorgeous Eclipse Che IDE. Workspace platform for DevOps to manage workspaces at scale with programmable and customizable infrastructure.

Vrapper is an eclipse plugin which acts as a wrapper for existing eclipse text editors to provide a Vim-like input scheme for moving around and editing text. Eclipse Update Site: http://vrapper.sourceforge.net/update-site/stable

Eclipse Che is a Kubernetes-native IDE that makes Kubernetes development accessible for development teams. It places everything a developer could need into containers in Kube pods including dependencies, embedded containerized runtimes, a web IDE, and project code. With the Kubernetes application in your development environment and an in-browser IDE, you can code, build, test and run applications exactly as they run on production from any machine.

IntelliJ-Plugins is a GitHub organization and central repository collection maintained by JetBrains that hosts a vast ecosystem of plugins extending the functionality of IntelliJ-based IDEs, including IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, CLion, and more. These plugins range from language support (e.g., for Rust, Go, or SQL) to productivity tools, UI themes, database helpers, VCS integrations, code analysis tools, and domain-specific utilities that tailor the IDE to different development workflows. By hosting plugin source code publicly, JetBrains promotes transparency, community contribution, and shared ownership of tooling that improves developer productivity and integrates niche technologies into world-class IDEs. Developers can explore design patterns, sample implementations, and extension points used by real plugins, learn how to build their own, or contribute enhancements and bug fixes.

RSyntaxTextArea is a syntax highlighting, code folding text component written in Swing. NOTE: For quite awhile now, RSTA's source has been hosted on GitHub, but releases were mirrored here on SourceForge. As of late 2015, all release artifacts are also hosted solely on GitHub. This SourceForge site is simply here to forward folks to our GitHub home: http://github.com/bobbylight/RSyntaxTextArea Artifacts are also available in Maven, e.g. com.fifesoft:rsyntaxtextarea:2.x.x
