Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) Description

The Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) enhances the Eclipse environment with a suite of tools aimed at facilitating the development of Web and Java EE applications. This comprehensive platform features both source and graphical editors for a range of programming languages, along with wizards and built-in applications designed to streamline the development process while also offering tools and APIs for deploying, running, and testing applications. Additionally, the Libra project seamlessly merges the functionalities of the Plug-in Development Environment project with the Web Tools Platform project, creating a cohesive framework for OSGi Enterprise implementations. Meanwhile, the JavaScript Development Tools introduce plug-ins that establish an integrated development environment for JavaScript applications and their incorporation within web projects. This suite enriches the Eclipse Workbench by adding a dedicated JavaScript project type and perspective, complemented by various views, editors, wizards, and builders to enhance the development experience further. Together, these tools contribute significantly to making Eclipse a robust platform for modern web development.
