Silver-J

Java is one of the most popular programming languages among developers nowadays, considered by many to be the ideal language for beginners, due to its versatility and support for multiple platforms.

Whether you are an experienced developer or wish to learn the basics, Silver-J may prove to be the application you need. It is a relatively simple Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that enables you to create and compile programs, as well as build executable JAR files, while offering support for code completion and syntax highlighting.

Silver-J offers a decent set of development tools, and it enables you to insert classes, packages and events without typing code, thus saving valuable time.

The application offers syntax highlighting for all the languages used in your projects, making it a lot easier to keep your work organized and locate various lines of code.

Moreover, the program offers suggestions when you begin writing certain syntax elements, enabling you to insert them from a convenient drop-down list.

While Silver-J may not impress you with its looks, the application allows you personalize pretty much every aspect of the user interface. The various panels can be resized or disabled altogether, and you can even remove the toolbar and status bar.

Several color themes are available, and it is especially pleasing to see that a darker variation is also included.

Given that Java is one of the first, if not the first programming language many beginners attempt to learn, the detailed user manual provided by this application should certainly be helpful.

To sum up, Silver-J is a reliable Java IDE that can be used to create applications and applet projects, compile and run programs, build JAR executables and more. It provides syntax highlighting and code completion, features a customizable interface and includes comprehensive documentation.
