    Hey, I'd like a general good practice/optimal IDE usage/project management tutorial (preferably with IntelliJ Idea). One of my big problems is that when I try to work on a bigger project, it always gets very messy over time, which makes it a drag to work on it. Apart from the good practice it wouldn't really be Bukkit-specific, but I find there's a general lack of information on this topic.

    Like how to set up the IDE, organize code and such? I think that'd be a good one to do alongside a maven tutorial.

    Yep, like that. And adding maven would be perfect, because I should get into that as well :p

    jorisk322 If you don't already use maven then you definitely need to! It makes life so much easier :3

    I'll make a tutorial on maven then :)

    Added a simple tutorial on the Bukkit Scheduler which shows you how to do a basic countdown plugin.

    drtshock What is the difference between IntelliJ and Eclipse, in your video you used IntelliJ. Do you find one better than the other and why so?

    I'm not sure if I should make the transition.

    I would definitely recommend Intellij over eclipse. Intellij has a nice, dark theme that's easy on the eyes (literally ;)). It also has some awesome code completion that takes a bit to get used to, but is actually quite nice. It also has great maven and git integration which makes things so easy :)

    I've always liked the dark theme to be honest. At once I tried to find an easy way to re-skin Eclipse to make it a dark theme because I just thought it looked a hell of a lot better.
    I really appreciate your input!

    Edit: drtshock I noticed that there is a free "community" version and a paid "Ultimate" version. Would you recommend I purchase it or download the free version?

    Definitely the free version. I don't know what's in the premium one, but the free one is fully featured.

    Goblom I don't want to depend on a library like that when it's not difficult to do it without one ;)

    spoljo666 I did D: I need to learn it better myself, but I could do a basic setup of a maven project with github.

    drtshock Then i can do it without IconMenu ;)

    True, its not hard without it, but people still have trouble making menus with icons

    drtshock How about SQLite and MySQL. Video tutorials for those are wide and far. An explanation of how to make the plugin generate the table I would like to see in that.

    drtshock So I really like IntelliJ, however I cannot compile. I can't seem to work out how to get the plugin.yml into the compile... :(
    It would seem as soon as I posted I worked out how to compile it with the plugin.yml. ;)

    Make intermediate and expert tutorials. And PLEASE make a video explaining event handler and array lists and and advanced stuff like that. Please!! drtshock

    And a vid on how to use multiple classes, but that event handler tut would be great!!! drtshock

    EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

    TheCombatCA Your signature wouldn't compile ;)

    dmoney12321 err advanced stuff like what? The first plugin video has an event handler in it. A video on how to use multiple classes would be a good idea :)
