**Sikuli IDE 1.0.1
Service Update per August 12th, 2013**
**MANDATORY ;-) --->>>** [Read the Release Notes carefully to avoid problems from the beginning](https://github.com/RaiMan/SikuliX-IDE/wiki/Release-Notes-IDE)
to download setup-sikuli.jar version 1.0.1 start here
Sikuli IDE is targeted at people who want to develop and run scripts using Sikuli features with one of the supported scripting languages (currently Python - more scripting languages to come) in a lightweight IDE with special support for the visual approach provided by Sikuli.
The downloadable packages of Sikuli IDE contain everything needed for all purposes (but it should not be used with standalone Jython to avoid conflicts with the bundled Jython - use sikuli-java.jar instead from Sikuli API)
For the use of Sikuli features in Java programs, other Java based languages or Java aware scripting languages currently not supported by Sikuli IDE you should use Sikuli API with other IDE's like Eclipse, NetBeans, ...
Same goes for people who want to develop, run and debug scripts using SikuliX-IDE supported scripting languages in other IDE's like Eclipse, Netbeans, ...
This repo is fully Maven, so a fork of this repo can be directly used as project in NetBeans/Eclipse/... or with mvn on commandline.
It depends on Sikuli API, Sikuli Jython and Sikuli Basics.
