Eclipse Orion

What is Eclipse Orion?

Orion is an open source browser-based platform for web development, aiming to provide a seamless, integrated experience entirely focused on the web, for the web. Designed as a modular system, Orion's tools are written in JavaScript and run directly within the user's web browser, unlike traditional desktop-based IDEs. This approach enables features such as shareable links, the ability to open files in new tabs, and a web-centric development workflow. Orion's components are designed to be individually consumable, allowing developers to embed specific tools and functionalities into their own applications and web pages. The public-facing OrionHub site allows anyone to create an account and explore the full suite of Orion's capabilities
