NetBeans Java EE Servers Support

This page summarizes the efforts to provide server plugins for the NetBeans IDE. A server plugin is a NetBeans plugin that facilitates integration with a web server or a Java EE server, including starting/stopping the server, deployment, debugging, user interface for server registration and basic administration, handling server-specific data and other tasks. The following table summarizes the server plugins currently available for NetBeans:
