I touched Java in school and rarely since. Is it the kind of language where you can be production-level productive with just a text editor and CLI, or do you need an IDE to manage everything?
The last time I poked at it, there were just so many config and generated files and so much complexity that it felt like I must use an IDE that hides a layer of “magic”.
Or am I just confessing ignorance and this isn’t a thing and it’s no more complex and magical than Rust or JavaScript or Python?

Edit: thank you all for the helpful responses.
