I'm looking for an IDE for Java that has a designer with it like VB has with it. I am clueless as to where i need to start with java and im looking to do so with the IDE.


As for learning Java, i already have a class for that. I just need to know an IDE that have a designer window to show you a preview of your Java application.

Any help is dearly welcomed!

Sadly, I'm not into what you're looking for at all. But, I'm sure you can find someone here on DZ. Good luck anyways.

Netbeans has a great designer (similar to the one found in Visual Studio), and I believe there is also a plugin for the ever popular Eclipse IDE, however it's not as good as the built-in designer found in Netbeans.

Like Chall said, NetBeans has a great designer built in. I thought Intellij has a plugin for it.

As the above said NetBeans has a great designer. I sometimes use that.

OR you can use WindowBuilder, its a plugin for Eclipse.
