The Eclipse Web Tools Platform has finally released version 1.0 of it’s great all-around web tools editor. WIth support for technologies like HTML, Javascript, CSS, JSP, SQL, and XML this is a great editor for every web developer to at least check out. You can Download version 1.0 from the eclipse.org site.

I’ve been using this editor for over six months now and it has replaced Dreamweaver as my choice of editor. Dreamweaver is great, but my development team needed to start working with versioning/source-control repositories, and Dreamweaver just didn’t have great native support for our system of choice which was Subversion. Granted, there is a Dreamweaver extension that provides subversion support, but the cost of the extension and negative reviews were a deterent. Dreamweaver was also overkill for our projects. We were simply using Dreamweaver as a very expensive text/code editor.

Thanks to Dopefly for pointing out the release of vesion 1.0 - Looks like I will have to join their mailing lists as well!
