2. Qt Creator: Qt Creator is an IDE focused on C++ programming and preferred by ROS developers. It offers ready-made customizations for ROS and helps you create Qt-based ROS projects.

3. Eclipse: Eclipse is an open source IDE used for many programming languages and can also be used for ROS development. It allows you to easily create customized plugins and projects for ROS.

4. CLion: Developed by JetBrains, CLion is an IDE for C++ development and supports ROS projects. It has features such as recognizing ROS packages and automatically detecting CMake projects.

5. Robot Studio: It is an IDE specially designed for ROS development. Robot Studio is useful for quickly prototyping and testing robotic applications.

Each of these IDEs has different advantages for ROS development and can be chosen depending on personal preferences. You can choose from different IDEs depending on the needs of your ROS projects and your skill level. Here, most of these IDEs have features that will help you develop ROS projects more efficiently and easily.
