What can replace Netbeans software for Linux?

Hello Randy.

Actually, you do not have to replace NetBeans as your IDE.  NetBeans IDE runs on the following platforms:

– Windows

– Linux x86 and x64 (Intel 32-bit and Intel 64-bit)

– Solaris x86, x64, and Sparc (Intel 32-bit, Intel 64-bit and Sparc stations)

– Mac OS X

You can check it out for yourself on their download page: https://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html.  Just download the Linux version that's right for your current architecture (32-bit or 64-bit).

NetBeans IDE is a Java application.  Which means any platform that has a JVM (Java Virtual Machine) can run it.  This makes it suitable for running under multiple platforms.  This is also part of the reason why it is a popular choice for Java developers.

Happy coding!
