Google Plugin for Eclipse

The Google Plugin for Eclipse is the fastest way to start developing Google Web Toolkit and App Engine applications.

It lets you go from installing the plugin to deploying an Ajax "Hello World" in minutes. See the Quick Start guide to install the plugin and create your first web application. Don't worry if you don't already have the GWT and App Engine SDKs; the plugin installation can download them for you.

The plugin currently supports Google Web Toolkit and Google App Engine development. Here are just a few of the features the plugin provides to speed your development process.

New Web Application Wizard

• Quickly create web applications that use GWT and/or App Engine. Your new application is fully-configured and ready to go.

Web Application Launch Configurations

• Run or debug your web application locally using fully-customizable launch configurations.

Support for Google Web Toolkit

• Development Mode View: inspect your debugging logs and manage the GWT code server right from Eclipse
• UiBinder support: template editor with auto-completion, as-you-type validation of template and owner classes, and creation wizard
• Speed Tracer support: help you identify and fix performance problems in your web applications
• Recognition of inline JavaScript (JSNI): Java reference auto-completion, syntax highlighting, auto-indenting, Java Search and Refactoring integration
• Validation, quick fixes, and refactoring support to keep your RPC interfaces in sync
  GWT compiler shortcuts and configuration UI
• Wizards to create modules, client bundles, entry points and HTML pages
• Compatibility with Eclipse for Java EE and projects built with Maven
• Support for GWT JUnit tests

Support for Google App Engine

• Easy deployment to App Engine
• As-you-type validation ensures that your code is compatible with App Engine
• Build projects and 'enhance' JDO classes automatically without the need for Ant
