How to find out if a project was created using Eclipse or NetBeans

I have a source of java applications, but I don’t know which IDE was used to create it. I would like to build this project with as few configuration changes as possible. How do I know if this project was created using Eclipse or NetBeans?

UPD: there are two xml files in the root directory called app-checks.xml (this file link refers to the Eclipse and Puppy Crawl plugin) and pom.xml (this file contains a link to maven). In the whole project, there are no .nbproject or .classpath/.project .

Which IDE is best used to open this project?

thanks

If you see files such as .classpath, .project in the project directory, then it is probably created using Eclipse. If it was created using NetBeans, you will find a file called .nbproject.

Regarding the new question that is best suited for the IDE, there are many wars around which the IDE is best suited. I prefer Eclipse, others prefer IntelliJ IDEA, others prefer NetBeans or others. They all know to open a project based on Maven. For example, I use the m2eclipse plugin to import into an Eclipse workspace.
