Using a Simple Editor
Installing Java
The first step of setting up your development environment is installing Java, if you haven't already. You can download Java here.
Downloading and installing your favorite text editor
The next step, if necessary, is installing your favorite text editor. For example, the Emacs text editor is popular.
Downloading the extension template
Once you have the tools, open the RapidMiner GitHub page in your browser. Select the repository rapidminer-extension-template.
Clone the repository or download and unpack the .zip file.
Using build.gradle
Open the file build.gradle of the extension template project in your text editor and proceed to the next step - giving your extension an individual name and settings.
