Any IDE similar to Android Studio?

-2

I'm learning Java, and I highly recommend Android Studio. My Notebook is a Core i3 with 4GB of ram, I was also told that with 4 ram is almost impossible to try to mess with java. Is this true? Even because I'm not thinking of upgrading in note just to program in a non language. Is there an IDE that looks like Android Studio just lighter or something? I really thought it was absurd to have almost 8 ram only to tinker with this IDE. I know it's about to make an app up by the notepad, but it would take a lot longer depending on the project. Note: It does not have to be an IDE that makes my note fly so light no, not locking too much to give error or something is already good.

My laptop apparently has the same configuration as yours, I already managed to use the android studio on it, after the IDE loads it to tinker (it takes a lot), but some crashed.

You can configure eclipse to have the android developmental environment - > in this tutorial .

Eclipse was once used to create android apps, but Google does not recommend it any more, but only by studying it.

I think your setup is pretty reasonable if you do not mess with a very heavy thing, one option is to upgrade that memory to 8GB. About IDE, I do not know if the best IDE to learn Java is Android Studio, it is more geared towards making applications with Android Patter. If you want an IDE that looks more like Android Studio than Java, there is the IntelliJ Community that is from the same Android Studio developer, both are very similar, and they are just as heavy. See below: link

On lighter options, you can try using Visual Studio Code with the plugin to program in Java. I tested it and it worked reasonably well and it looks like an excellent IDE option for a higher level, the only caveat is that maybe you need some more advanced language knowledge to set up some things, but this will also gain insight and talz. See below: link

And finally we have the good old eclipse that in a matter of weight, is an intermediate between the two options above, and also if I'm not mistaken, it should be the IDE most used among Java programmers. See below: link
