#765 Eclipse-based Fan IDE is going to jump into Fan IDE train :)

andrey Tue 29 Sep 2009

Hey guys,

Recently we started to develop eclipse-based IDE for the Fan language, and would be happy if Fan IDE train will leave the station with eclipse wagon in addition to NetBeans and IDEA based tools presented here.

We're trying to code as fast as possible but not ready yet with publicly available version, so I'm posting quick and dirty screencast to ensure fan and eclipse fans that we will have support of wonderful fan language within our favorite development platform. Please stay tuned.

Screencast:

Kind Regards, Andrey

Andre, this looks already great, congratulations! Can't wait to try it.

I think an Eclipse plug-in will be very important for Fan to gain mind share, so I'm very excited to see this!
