Eclipse Theia is a free and open-source integrated development environment (IDE) framework for desktop and web applications.[2] It is implemented in TypeScript, is based on Visual Studio Code, and emphasizes extensibility.[3][4][5]

History[]

Theia was developed by TypeFox and Ericsson, with additional contributions from Red Hat, IBM, Google and Arm Holdings.[6][7] It was first launched in March 2017.[8] Since May 2018, Theia has been a project of the Eclipse Foundation.[9]

About[]

Theia is built on the Language Server Protocol (LSP) and supports a variety of programming languages.[10] 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.[11] Theia's layout consists of draggable docks.[11][12]

Theia is a free and open-source software project under the Eclipse Foundation and is licensed under the Eclipse Public License 2.0 (EPL2).[13]

Usage[]

Eclipse Che uses Eclipse Theia as its default IDE starting from version 7.[14] In September 2018, the online IDE was released which is based on Theia.[15]

Arduino IDE 2.0 is based on Eclipse Theia, replacing the Processing-based IDE.[16]

Reception[]

In January 2019, , a website and blog about coding,[17] ranked Theia as the third-most popular JavaScript integrated development environment of 2018 according to GitHub metrics, behind Visual Studio Code and Atom.[18]
