BlueJ Experience

What do you like best?

The best part about BlueJ is the interface. It provides a good looking and minimalistic experience of an IDE in Java Language. No problems in configuring the compiler too and JVM. Other IDE's require you to download the compiler separately and configure it. But BlueJ has it set up and enabled by default. The code and syntax highlighting is best and is enabled by default. We can change the theming and font size, style, color according to our needs.

What do you dislike?

The only thing I dislike about BlueJ is the termination of a program. If a program is terminated automatically due to some error/memory error the JVM keeps running. You have to manually switch it off/stop it to execute a program again. And that it does not have a proper dedicated page for a guide/user manual present on its website.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

To people looking to BlueJ you would just have to check some other websites on guides on how to use the software. As the official documentation isn't enough or you will be stuck while coding a particular application on BlueJ. And if you want the best and sleek looking IDE out there with Java support then BlueJ is the one

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I had started using BlueJ way back 6 years ago when I wrote my 1st program. Be it any code in Java I always prefer to use BlueJ because of it's awesome syntax highlighting and error correction techniques that are present. I have written many Java codes (even If I don't compile) just because I get the proper syntax highlighting I want and proper indentation which makes our program look clean and sleek.
