Can anyone?

This question is _"primarily opinion-based"_, and is therefore off topic for SO. And regardless of that, the scope of your question is far too broad. See [How do I ask a good question?](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask) for further information. (And your claim that Netbeans uses "ANT as build tool" is just wrong; with NetBeans you are free to use Ant or Maven or Gradle, and there are project creation wizards that support the use of each approach.) – skomisa Oct 18 '19 at 16:03

IDEs like Eclipse, Intellij Idea and Netbeans provides facilities to create a java project with build tool like Maven, Gradle or Ant. It is upto the developer to make selection from UI of the IDEs. It is also possible to create a project without using any build tools.
To know the various differences in Ant, Maven and Gradle, refer below the following links.
