Eclipse or netbeans?

Maybe someone could help me choose....

as far as GUI framework, i'll probably be using swing & Javafx
EDIT: Although i'm wondering what will be the leading GUI framework in the future?

why do you need someone to pick an IDE for you? pick whichever you prefer. or if you dont have a preference, pick one at random. if it annoys you, switch to the other. i've always found eclipse to be a real pain when it comes to adding plugins.

It's all preference.

I switched to Eclipse from Netbeans.

i use JetBrains IntelliJ

imo it has the best debugger, + the IDEA autocomplete and refactor made it worth swappin from eclips
plugins are super quick and easy, when i installed it i had golang and mysql for go plugged in like 10 seconds
i really like the package structure as well dependencies are a sinch through jar and maven
also if you have a .edu email account you can get the pro version for free, comes with a cool swing gui and some other stuff

took me a little while to get used to the new hotkeys and closing my projects when i exit but i'm pretty happy with it over eclipse and netbeans
+it comes in darkula lol

I prefer netbeans. It really doesn't matter though.

netbeans has a built in gui "drag and drop" builder, which helps you learn swing and awt
netbeans also has a built in SQL virtual database you can connect to and create tables if you want to learn how to do that

It's possible you can do this with eclipse as well, but idk
