   The jMonkeyEngine SDK is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides you with unique plugins for creating jMonkeyEngine 3 game content. You can link:http://jmonkeyengine.org/downloads/[download and install the jMonkeyEngine SDK] as a ready-to-use complete game development environment, rather than using a generic Java IDE. (<<jme3/beginner/what_s_an_ide#,What's an IDE>>?)
   
  -Since the jMonkeyEngine SDK is based on the link:http://platform.netbeans.org/[NetBeans Platform] (<<sdk/whynoteclipse#,Why not Eclipse RCP?>>), you have access to all of the developer tools in the link:http://www.netbeans.org/[NetBeans IDE], including a wide variety of deployment formats ranging from browser Applet and WebStart to desktop executables. Allthough we recommend the jMonkeyEngine SDK, experienced users can work with the jMonkeyEngine JARs in their favorite IDE, and choose to only use the jMonkeyEngine SDK to manage assets and JME3 binaries.
