I just downloaded the most recent version of NetBeans 8.2 with the JDK, specifically the Windows x64 version from here.
The issue I'm having is when I open it and go to Available Plugins, there's no option for Python plugins.
Anyone know if there's a python plugin I can find externally to use with this? Looking in the Installed Plugins, there's no indication of a pre-existing Python plugin, btw.
There is no official plugin for 8.2. A beta is in development (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/NBPython).
You can download the and install the 8.1 version (http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/61688/python).
1) Unzip
2) Start Netbeans IDE 8.2
3) Tools -> Plugins -> Downloaded -> [Add Plugins ...] open the extracted files
4) install all plugins
5) Restart IDE
Best of luck cause your mileage may very ;-)
