In order for Java 9 to be adopted easily and as quickly as possible by the developer community, it’s very important for the integrated development environments (IDEs) and build tools to offer extensive support for Java 9 as much as possible—so important that we dedicate this entire chapter to this topic.
This last chapter shows how JDK 9 in general and the Java Platform Module System in particular integrates with the following:
IDEs like Intellij IDE, Eclipse, and NetBeans
Build tools like Apache Maven
We’ll discover what kinds of support these tools offer for Jigsaw.
