My NetBeans installation is setup to program in Java. These are the settings, plugins and styles I use.
- netbeans-settings.zip - My recommended settings for NetBeans.
- netbeans-default.zip - The default settings for NetBeans. (incase you need to reset your changes)
Open Apache NetBeans. On the menu bar open Tools, choose Options. On the bottom left of the Options windows choose Import. Then in the Select Options to Import window click Browse, and select NetBeans-Settings.zip. Then click OK, click OK again. Then click Yes. NetBeans will now restart with the new settings.
Open Apache NetBeans. On the menu bar open Tools, choose Templates. On the Template Manager window, at the bottom right corner click the Settings button. A document User.properties will open. On line 8 it should read
user=Name Surname <https://github.com/username>
Change this to your name and website and save and close the file. For myself it would be
user=Mark Crowe <https://github.com/markcrowe-com>
