“As part of a growing movement towards free software, Borland
released its JBuilder 3 Foundation Java Integrated Development
Environment–or IDE–for free to the Linux, Solaris and Windows
worlds….”

With JBuilder, Windows users familiar with any of the
visual development tools will find themselves right at home, as the
Linux clone looks and acts almost exactly like JBuilder for
Windows.
This really helps if you want to work on Linux in an
all-Windows shop. With JBuilder, your entire team could use the
same tool, regardless of platform….”

“To help speed up development, JBuilder includes a number of
wizards, dialogs that lead you step-by-step through some tasks. For
example, the Project Wizard leads you through the process of
setting up a new project. Since JBuilder is built around a
project-based organization, this can really help.”
