    For people not familiar with Eclipse release convention: Eclipse releases every year in June. Previous releases were Neon in 2016 and Oxygen in 2017.

      Ah, the website does a poor job mentioning that Photon is a release of the Eclipse IDE, and not some sub-project under the foundation’s umbrella. Thanks!

      Includes native rust support through the language server. That’s neat. I wonder how well integrated rust actually feels though?

        “Test source folders will be preselected in the New JUnit Test Case-Wizard”

        YAAY!!! This has been a (minor) annoyance for a long time. Eclipse defaulted to putting my tests in src/main/java instead of src/test/java for maven projects, and fixing it required me to tab back through a good dozen controls or switch to the mouse. Every time I made a new test case.

        This is going to save me many, many seconds.
