Environment Setup

 Environment Setup

IDE – Integrated Development Environment
Choose you favorite IDE (IntelliJ - Community Version) or Eclipse).
My personal favorite is IntelliJ, but you can choose whatever you want.
For your convenience you can download either one of them via the links,
and there are some useful tutorials for the usage of eclipse if you're really new to Java.
1.     Eclipse Tutorials
2.     Eclipse Shortcuts
3.     Eclipse Debugging

VCS – Version Control System

We recommend Git, you can get the installation to your desired platform from this link.
You can read a tutorial about it in the official site, or in the Vogella site.

Build Tool

Download the newest version of Maven from the maven site.
Read about maven in the next tutorial (Must read) if you'd like to read further you take a look at more books about maven like "Apache Maven 3 Cookbook", or you can find free online PDF's of older versions. (Betterbuilds with Maven 2.0)
