| == What is Eclipse? == | | === Flathub === |
| Eclipse is an awesome IDE for creating apps, in various languages. It has a GTK+ UI that is much more accesible to regular programmers from a Windows environment than the tools traditionally used by FOSS hackers.
| | The Java IDE can also be installed as a Flatpak package from [https://flathub.org/apps/org.eclipse.Java Flathub]: |

|
| It is currently best for developing apps in Java, but support for C, C++, C# and Python is rapidly catching up.

|
| |
|
| It has its own Open Source license (the Eclipse Public Library, or EPL).
| | == Troubleshooting == |
| | See [https://github.com/flathub/org.eclipse.Java Eclipse on Flathub] for bug reports and pull requests on the Flatpak manifest. |

| | It is also possible to start Eclipse with command line parameters: |

|
| Fedora Eclipse is a community project encompassing everything Eclipse-related in Fedora. We ship the Eclipse SDK, CDT, as well as the PyDev, ChangeLog, and Bugzilla plugins. We are working on making plugin packagin easier, and also on packaging more plugins.
