Hey there java developers, Just joined the site so I could learn some more from the awesome community! ^^
But alas I have a problem, me and my friend would like to work on one project; However we do not live near each other (Close enough to continually transfer things by USB ect)
I was thinking maybe there was a way in eclipse for two people to work on one project over some kind of network? Any ideas guys, Anything is appreciated ^^.
GitHub is the best option. Dropbox could also work, but not very well, so GitHub is your best option. There are also alternatives to GitHub, but GitHub is the most popular.
Thanks so much! We can finally get started ^^.
Don’t forget to learn git basic first, to make sure no one of you break the repo.
Hi,
i don’t know if what am gonna say is right or wrong (expert will judge)
if my thoughts are right, your friend must be “ItzKR15” (you both use ItZ and number to spell kris and Aden) and according to your recent posts, both of you are a complete noobs and please don’t feel offended, we all was in that level someday and i still consider myself a noob, now here is what i want to say, or probably ask, do you guys recommend this kind of learning in this specific level ?
yesterday he was asking about a simple if statement ,i really don’t mean any offense, but IMHO i think he and his friend will be WASTING a lot of time trying to figure out how to work with GitHub and then they will face ton of problem about organization and which one going to do this job and which one going to do another job and this also need knowledge and experience, so if you want my advise, i suggest Skype, you may laugh but in this time Skype is all you need, both of you going to work on the same project at the same time, make it a competition between you, and while you’re coding just keep skype open to chat and keep the fun and the motivation going, when some of you is stacked the other could easily help and when both of you are staked you can come here and we’ll be more than happy to help you ;D but remember !!
just like you should think before you speak, you should google before you post
( YOSH ;D !! I ALWAYS WANTED TO SAY THAT 8) !! )
PS :
please don’t use this kind of title again “Help me please” " Please help me out! Newbie in distress !! "
the main reason of using a specific significant title is that when someone else have the same problem and search for it, he will find your old post which is already answered, so even when you are asking for help, you are in the same time helping someone else in the future, don’t you feel like Batman now 
??
good luck
We are noobs, thanks for the info ^^
@alaslipknot: got brave enough to say it ;D
He is right. Git is relatively complicated and can bring disaster on wrong hand. I use git for myself since what I know is push, pull, add, commit, reset, rebase, merge, and remote. That’s all. On team workflow (branching) you have to deal with more complicated things like conflict and lose of commits history.
If you and your friend want real-time live coding you might want to google for Saros.
It’s slow to startup but I found it pleasant to use. You and your partner(s) share the same editor and code your project in real time… you can see your partner(s) typing letters etc…
There is also online code editor for team. Google it.
