Using an IDE on Bianca is cumbersome and there are superior ways to develop code on Bianca.

However, using an IDE may make it easier for a new user to feel comfortable using Bianca.

The UPPMAX 'Programming Formalisms' course will teach you a superior workflow, where development takes place on your own regular computer and testing is done using simulated/fake data. When development is done, the tested project is uploaded to Bianca and setup to use the real data instead.

This avoids using a clumsy remote desktop environment, as well as many added bonuses.
