Eclipse is an open-source (under the Eclipse Public License, or EPL) powerful IDE with tooling for various languages. It has a GTK+ user interface and is written in Java. As it is written in Java it is cross-platform and capable of running on Linux, MacOS and Windows. It is maintained and used by a large community of volunteers and companies.

Installation

It can be installed via merely running:

flatpak install org.eclipse.Java

You may also install it using Gnome Software or KDE Discover; look for Eclipse IDE for Java Developers.

Troubleshooting

See Eclipse on Flathub for bug reports and pull requests on the Flatpak manifest.

No Splashscreen Image

As the splash is stored as legacy BMP try

yum install gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra

to fix it.
