Eclipse Theia

Eclipse Theia is a free and open-source framework for building IDEs and tools based on modern web technologies.[3] Theia-based applications can be deployed as desktop and web applications.[4] It is implemented in TypeScript, is based on Visual Studio Code, and emphasizes extensibility.[5][6][7]

History

Theia was originally developed by TypeFox and Ericsson, and continually receives contributions from EclipseSource, Red Hat, IBM, Google, Arm Holdings as well as from individual contributors.[8][9] It was first launched in March 2017.[10] Since May 2018, Theia has been a project of the Eclipse Foundation.[11]

About

Theia is built on the Language Server Protocol (LSP) and supports a variety of programming languages.[12] It can be used as a desktop application, a web application, or a hybrid application with separate front and back ends. All of Theia's features are implemented as extensions, which allows third-party developers to modify Theia's functionality by using the same application programming interfaces (APIs) as the application's default components.[13] Theia's layout consists of draggable docks.[13][14] Theia is compatible with Visual Studio Code extensions.[15]

Theia is a free and open-source software project under the Eclipse Foundation and is licensed under the Eclipse Public License 2.0 (EPL2).[16]

Usage

Eclipse Che uses Eclipse Theia as its default IDE starting from version 7.[17]

In September 2018, the online IDE Gitpod was released which was based on Theia.[18] (In 2021, Gitpod switched to Visual Studio Code.[19])

Arduino IDE 2.0 is based on Eclipse Theia, replacing the Processing-based IDE.[20]

Reception

In January 2019, JAXenter, a website and blog about coding,[21] ranked Theia as the third-most popular JavaScript integrated development environment of 2018 according to GitHub metrics, behind Visual Studio Code and Atom.[22]
