What Is IDE (Integrated development environment) ?


Hello Everyone,
Today in this article we will discuss about IDE.

 An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides computer programmers with comprehensive functions for software development. IDE usually consists of at least a source code editor, build automation tools and debugger. Some IDEs (such as NetBeans and Eclipse) include the necessary compiler, interpreter, or both. Other companies like SharpDevelop and Lazarus do not.

The boundary between the IDE and other parts of the broader software development environment is not well defined; sometimes a version control system is integrated or various tools simplify the graphical user interface (GUI). Many modern IDEs also have class browsers, object browsers, and class hierarchy diagrams for object-oriented software development.


Common characteristics of integrated development environments



 IDE usually includes a code editor, compiler or interpreter and debugger accessed through a single graphical user interface (GUI). The user writes and edits the source code in the code editor. The compiler converts the source code into a computer-readable language that is executable by the computer. The debugger will test the software to resolve any problems or errors.

 The IDE can also include features such as programmable editors, object and data modeling, unit testing, source code libraries, and build automation tools.

 The toolbar of the IDE looks much like the toolbar of a word processor. The toolbar facilitates color-based organization, source code format, error diagnosis and reporting, and intelligent code completion. Through the IDE's interface, developers or teams of developers can incrementally compile and execute code, and manage changes to the source code in a unified manner. IDEs are usually designed to integrate with third-party version control libraries, such as GitHub and Apache's Subversion.

 The IDE can support model-driven development (MDD). Developers using the IDE start with the model and the IDE converts it into appropriate code. The IDE can then debug and test model-driven code with high automation. Once the build is successful and properly tested, it can be deployed through the IDE or other tools outside the IDE for further testing.



Types of IDEs and available tools


Developers must match the IDE they use with the type of application they want to produce. For Example, Web-based IDE is suitable for developing web-based applications using HTML, JavaScript, or similar programming languages. Microsoft's Visual Studio Code is an example of a web-based IDE with a code editor, syntax highlighting, code completion, and debugging.
IDEs are increasingly provided on the platform as a service (PaaS) delivery model. The benefits of these cloud-based IDEs include access to software development tools from anywhere in the world and from any compatible device. Minimum and non-existent download and installation requirements; and simplifies collaboration among geographically dispersed developers. Cloud9 is an IDE from AWS that supports up to 40 languages, including C, C++, Python, Ruby, and JavaScript. Cloud9 provides users with code completion functions, image editors and debuggers, and other functions, such as support for deployment to Microsoft Azure and Heroku (this is the cloud-based PaaS IDE).
IDEs for mobile development can usually be used with code running on iOS or Android devices. Xamarin is an example of a cross-platform mobile IDE, which suggests it can create code for multiple mobile platform types. For example, developers can write functions in C, and Xamarin can convert them to Swift for iOS and Java for Android. In addition, Xamarin also provides UI testing, and Beta testing can be distributed to users.
IDEs such as C-Free support language editors, debuggers, and environments that run C and C++ code. Other IDEs support multiple languages, such as the aforementioned Cloud9 and Visual Studio Code. The more popular IDE tools include NetBeans, Eclipse, and IntelliJ IDEA.

Understanding the Event Loop, Callbacks JS

Image
  Introduction In the early days of the internet, websites often consisted of static data on an HTML page. But now that web applications have become more interactive and dynamic, it has become increasingly necessary to do intensive operations like make external network requests to retrieve  API  data. To handle these operations in JavaScript, a developer must use  asynchronous programming  techniques. The Event Loop This section will explain how JavaScript handles asynchronous code with the event loop. It will first run through a demonstration of the event loop at work, and will then explain the two elements of the event loop: the stack and the queue. JavaScript code that does not use any asynchronous Web APIs will execute in a synchronous manner—one at a time, sequentially. This is demonstrated by this example code that calls three functions that each print a number to the console: // Define three example functions function first ( ) { console ....

Overview of HTML5 and HTML5 Features

Hello Guys, In this article, We will learn about the overview of HTML5 and HTML5 Features   What is HTML5? HTML 5 HTML5 is the latest specification of HTML language, which represents a major breakthrough with previous markup practice. The purpose of making profound changes to the language is to standardize many new ways developers use it and encourage a set of best practices related to web development. Most individual changes are the result of larger goals in language design. These goals mainly include: Encourage semantic (meaningful) markup Separate design from content Promote accessibility and design responsiveness Reduce the overlap between HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Support rich media experiences without plug-ins like Flash or Java Understanding HTML5 is not only about understanding which CSS features can replace old HTML features. If you want to understand HTML5 intuitively, it is best to understand how these goals affect the development of the langua...

Overview of Google Classroom, Slack and Trello Features

Image
Hello Everyone, Today my first class in Uki. Today I learned a lot of things. In that today especially I learn about GOOGLE CLASSROOM, SLACK, and TRELLO.So in this article, we learn about those three things which I mentioned above the line. 1. GOOGLE CLASSROOM Google Classroom Google Classroom is a free web service developed by Google for schools that aims to simplify creating, distributing, and grading assignments. The primary purpose of Google Classroom is to streamline the process of sharing files between teachers and students. Features Google Classroom combines Google Drive, Google Docs, Forms and slides, and Gmail to help educational institutions use a paperless system.  Google Calendar was later integrated to help schedule deadlines, field trips, and classroom speakers. You can invite students to enter the classroom through the private database through the institution's database, and then add it to the student's user interface or automatically i...
