Towards a modern Eclipse UI: Adding Chromium support to the Eclipse IDE
The current version of Eclipse uses operating-system-dependent, outdated browser technologies. This issue was already brought up and discussed by the Eclipse community. But the efforts done so far were not successful. After analyzing the problem and much experimentation, we found three possible solutions that will be shown in the talk. All approaches have benefits and drawbacks, and after many discussions with the Eclipse community, we decided to go down the Electron path. We will present the current state of the project and how our approach could be integrated in your solution.
