If you're just learning, I'd suggest not using an IDE.  While they
offer a lot of help with auto completion and hinting at errors before
you compile, they also hide a lot of the setup that needs to be done
to get things working.  You end up having an extra layer of complexity
to get around when something doesn't work as you think it should.
