Gotama Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Hey all this is my first post so forgive if its in the wrong location, I did manage to get around to doing a search for IDE and it doesnt look like the topic came up!Im a beginner to HTML 5 development and im hoping that it will interest me to actually use it as a tool to develop games for release once ive done a few tutorials and learned some knowledge on html5 game dev. My question is, do you think its alright to use eclipse with impact for html5 game dev? reason being i want to use eclipse is because its what i learned android app development on and have some comfort in using this IDE. Although i am not afraid to branch off to another IDE. Ive done research and it seems to me most HTML 5 users are happy with Webstorm or PHPstorm.Are there any Eclipse guys on this forum? Lay on all your criticism and advice!Thank you and hopefully HTML 5 interest me enough to use it on a commercial level! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotama Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 turns out, you need Java EE if you want to code with HTML5 in eclipse! thought i might just say what i learned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny! Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Personally, I used to work with Eclipse and think it's a pretty cool IDE. Since three years I had to switch to Netbeans though (mainly because to unify the use of developer tools in a larger project) - and I still stick with it. Although I really loved working with Eclipse before - I know like the way Netbeans works/looks. I guess I just get used to it. In the end it's a matter of personal choice I think.

Gotama Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 Ah yea, thanks for your insight anyway I guess ill just go with eclipse since i work on it already changing at a later date if need be shouldnt be a problem since ive worked on multiple IDE's in other languages.
