Officially, it is important that you verify the integrity of the downloaded files using the PGP signatures (.asc file) or a hash (.sha512 files). The PGP keys used to sign this release are available here.

Apache NetBeans can also be installed as a self-contained snap package on Linux.

Community Installers

Individual NetBeans committers may provide additional binary packages as a convenience. While built using the Apache NetBeans release, they are not releases of the Apache Software Foundation. They may include other contents (eg. JDK) under additional license terms.

  • Codelerity / Gj IT packages - Windows, macOS and Linux (.deb / .AppImage) built with NBPackage. Most include a local JDK runtime for the IDE to run on, for a self-contained out-of-the-box experience (other JDK’s may be used for projects).

Deployment Platforms

The Apache NetBeans 14 binary releases require JDK 11+, and officially support running on JDK 11 and JDK 17.

The current JDKs have an issue on macOS Big Sur, that causes freezes on dialogs. That could be fixed by applying the workaround described at NETBEANS-5037 .

Building from Source

To build Apache NetBeans 14 from source you need:

  1. A distribution of OpenJDK 8 or 11.

  2. Apache Ant 1.10 or greater (https://ant.apache.org).

Once you have everything installed then:

  1. Unzip netbeans-14-source.zip in a directory of your liking.

  1. cd to that directory, and then run ant to build the Apache NetBeans IDE. Once built you can run the IDE by typing ./nbbuild/netbeans/bin/netbeans
