An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development.
Description
An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. Most modern IDEs have intelligent code completion.
Some IDEs contain a compiler, interpreter (computing), or both, such as NetBeans and Eclipse.
Others do not, such as SharpDevelop and Lazarus.
Software development environment
The boundary between an integrated development environment and other parts of the broader software development environment is not well-defined.
Sometimes a version control system, or various tools to simplify the construction of a Graphical user interface (GUI), are integrated.
Many modern IDEs also have a class browser, an object browser, and a class hierarchy diagram, for use in object-oriented software development.
