NetBeans is an integrated development environment (IDE) for Java. NetBeans allows applications to be developed from a set of modular software components called modules. NetBeans runs on Windows, macOS, Linux and Solaris. In addition to Java development, it has extensions for other languages like PHP, C, C++, HTML5, and JavaScript. Applications based on NetBeans, including the NetBeans IDE, can be extended by third party developers.

ctags is a shell command that generates an index (tag) file of programmatic identifiers parsed from source code files of various programming languages to aid with code comprehension. The tags are often used by a source-code editor to lookup the definition of an identifier while the user develops the source code. Alternatively, the command supports an output format that is a human-readable cross reference.
