But JavaScript and hypertext are no longer second-class citizens in NetBeans country. Not only has JavaScript support been greatly enhanced, but the NetBeans 8.1 beta version comes with full support ...

WebStorm, Visual Studio 2017, Visual Studio Code, NetBeans, Komodo, and Eclipse pull out the stops for JavaScript, Node.js, and friends.

NetBeans 8 also contains many new HTML5 features. It has enhanced code completion for AngularJS, Knockout and other JavaScript frameworks.

Topping the list of enhancements in NetBeans 7.3 is support for HTML5 and CSS, and a new JavaScript editor and debugger based on the Nashorn project.

The NetBeans 6.0 code editor will accommodate the JRuby run time and adds fuller support for JavaScript. JRuby is a version of the Ruby language that runs on the Java virtual machine.

NetBeans strongly supports developing MVC-based applications in Java. Servlet/JSP development is relatively simple compared to Eclipse, especially in deployment and debugging.

As a workaround, I could switch to another project group (with other non-javascript projects), then restart Netbeans. In this case, there is no exception and no background CPU usage on startup.
