Build Tool for OFBiz

[Ahmad Saki]

Dear All,
I am new in OFBiz. So, I need some advice before development.
I need to know that which build tool is preferable for OFBiz Apache Ant or
Gradle?
And, which IDE is preferable to develop OFBiz IntelliJ or Eclipse?

Thanks
Ahmad Saki

Hi Ahmad Saki,

As per build tool is concerned, Apache Ant was used till 15.12 (
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/Cw4jB ) & with OFBiz 16.11 it
comes with an embedded Gradlew wrapper that can be used with  "gradlew"
keyword. ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/KA4jB ). For both the
cases, you don't have to install it externally.

You can choose any of these IDEs. Here are some links that may be helpful:
