Useful programming tools

Here are some programming tools we have successfully used to build client and other applications. These are generally Open Source tools (with a few notable and very worthwhile exceptions). There are also various language and programming-related topical links.

If you are looking for Microsoft Windows specific programming tools, consider that a)many of the tools on this page will work with Windows very nicely and b)really, consider working with Open Source Operating systems (such as Linux) instead, perhaps for reasons worth considering.

Having noted this, take a look at our Windows programming resources page for useful info on this very large topic.
