IntelliJ Idea. Costs money, but is well worth every penny. If you are on a budget, then take a look at Netbeans. Avoid Eclipse.

I used to be an eclipse guy, because it was free. I've been converted to intellij! Even the community (free) edition is enough to get started

What about Eclipse? Is it still relevant today? Last time I used it was 4 years ago I think, and it's quite good.

I mean considering I am just a junior in college it is more than sufficient for my work. but I want to get accustomed to a more advanced IDE that I will use for the future, by the time I graduate.

Last time I checked, netbeans is still super slow with maven projects. I'd suggest good old eclipse first and then intellij if you want fancy refactoring.

I would highly recommend eclipse and recommend you don't use Netbeans

I downloaded the bare bones eclipse package, and setup all the plugins and dependencies for it myself. Its blazing fast at starts up almost instantly. Perfect for Java imo
