==Controversy== Many source-code editors and IDEs have been involved in ongoing user arguments, sometimes referred to jovially as "holy wars" by the programming community.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/~joern/jargon/holywars.HTML |title=Holy War (Hacker Jargon) |access-date=2016-11-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120402134919/http://www.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/~joern/jargon/holywars.HTML |archive-date=2012-04-02 |url-status=dead }}</ref>{{better source needed|date=June 2022}} Notable examples include [[Editor war|vi vs. Emacs]] and [[Eclipse (software)|Eclipse]] vs. [[NetBeans]].
