Hi,

The Nifi Developer's Guide is a great read with lots of useful information.  
However, as a relative noob to Nifi development, I still have a few questions 
that seemed unanswered (or perhaps I overlooked):


1.       Recommended IDE for Nifi - given Nifi development involves both Java 
and Maven, is there a recommended or preferred IDE (e.g., NetBeans vs. Eclipse 
- other?) that's considered better?  I realize this is also probably personal 
preference, but would like to know what the core Nifi team uses and recommends 
for debugging, both local and remote Nifi instances.


2.       Debugging mode - given Nifi often runs as a Linux service, for 
debugging are you typically attaching to one or more running processes or 
launching Nifi separately to debug it?  If attaching, what does one attach to, 
given many running java processes come and go?


3.       Processor development vs. NAR packaging - when developing and 
debugging, given the run-time Nifi is installed in a different directory tree 
vs. the source tree, what is the most productive approach to inline development 
and debugging (vs. making changes, packaging and then installing NAR package 
into run-time area?

Is there any documentation or blog posts covering the above?  (Google and I 
didn't find it)

Thanks in advance.
Rick
