ABOUT ECLIPSE DIRIGIBLE?
It is a Web IDE.
It is a Backend stuff.
It uses Eclipse RAP.
The trial requires registration, so I have never tried
I tried the Tomcat option from GitHub, it worked
WE ARE PROUD OF• Full dev support for JavaScript (thanks to Rhino) – server-side, client-side,
generation, templates, debugging, monitoring, securing, injected objects, modularization, flows, jobs, even direct Java objects invocation
• Support for Java for in-system programming (thanks to javax.tools) – dynamic in-memory compilation, reference to the standard JDK libraries, platform specific or even custom plugins
• Web & Native dual plugins in Eclipse (thanks to RAP) – web based editors or complementary to the existing yet comfortable editors in standalone Eclipse from JDT, JSDT, EGit, WTP, Mylyn, etc.
• High-level of modularization (thanks to OSGi) – separate p2 repositories for the different packaging types or platform specific
• Requires just OS, JDK and Tomcat to run with all the features.
RELATION WITH ECD PROJECTS• Unified Workspace management APIs
