history

Project history and usage

This Eclipse distribution combines a Java IDE with tools for enterprise applications and web development.

Project history

The Java EE developer download was among the profile-based packages EPP introduced with the 2007 Europa release.

The package family is now presented as Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers, reflecting its broader enterprise and web tooling.

Adoption history

EPP made task-specific Eclipse installations available from the main download site. Its 2013 release review reported millions of downloads across EPP packages; that statement does not isolate the Java EE edition.

How it is used

The bundle supports Java and web application work, including JavaScript, TypeScript, server-side Java technologies, persistence, data tooling and Maven integration.

Why package nerds care

The package illustrates Eclipse's distribution model: independently developed features are assembled into a tested IDE product. EPP maintains product definitions and produces platform-specific distributions from the coordinated release.

Timeline

  • 2007: EPP delivers a Java EE developer package with Europa.
