Nowadays Web Applications are more complex and interactive than ever before. To achieve the goal of interactivity JavaScript is used most of the time.
Developing JavaScript was not as comfortable than writing for example Java classes, because there were no debugging possibility and no comfortable IDE, with for example code completion, available.
The "bad" times are now over; here are two tools that every Javascript developer needs:
- For Debugging JavaScript the Firebug Plugin for the Firefox Browser is state of the art: Firebug Website
- For Writing JavaScript the JSEclipse Plugin for the Eclipse IDE offers many comfortable support like a powerful IDE: How to install JSEclipse
Enjoy the new feeling of JavaScript development ;)
