MPLABX IDE

         MPLABX is a complete IDE software for Microchip PIC microcontrollers. It has an integrated compiler, debugger, simulating tool and many other tools required for complete development of embedded applications. It has support for many plugins of different softwares like MATLAB,Proteus and many others. It provides support for various other compilers of PICs like PICClite, CCS compiler etc.
               MPLAB® X Integrated Development Environment brings many changes to the PIC® microcontroller development tool chain. Unlike previous versions of MPLAB® which were developed completely in-house, MPLAB® X is based on the open source NetBeans IDE from Oracle. Taking this path has allowed us to add many frequently requested features very quickly and easily while also providing us with a much more extensible architecture to bring you even more new features in the future.

                      You can have as many versions of a compiler installed as you wish to work with. Each is identified by its own version. For any project, you can select the specific version of your choice. This enables you to use more than one instance of a compiler within the IDE at the same time.Project configurations can be set to use an older version while trying a new release.
                                       "One Click" Make, Program, Debug / Execute operation. Unlike other IDEs where you build, have to connect to the hardware tool, program the target and then start your debug session.
Under MPLAB® X it is all compiled into one action button. Run, Program, or Debug Run starts ‘Make’ which will check for changes and build any relevant updates, connect to the tool program the images and either start a debug session or start an execution of the programmed image.
                  
                     Above all the important thing is that it is free and provided with compilers that support 8-bit and even 32-bit microcontrollers. The development tool chain also supports the digital signal processors.
