Looks just like VS Code and I think it’s still built on electron so take that as you will.

But how’s the java support? If it’s better than vs code then it might be worth something.

This is their “light IDE” basically, the equivalent of VS Code. Their Java IDE is the full thing, well, Eclipse. Although I personally prefer IntelliJ IDEA.

Is anyone using Eclipse anymore? I’ve barely heard anything about it the past 10 years.

Had a coworker five years ago who wouldn’t let go of it. And he was really productive.

To my understanding, there are still some things it does better than IntelliJ, for instance being able to add all missing imports in one go instead of one by one.
I’ll admit though that this is a rather tiny advantage, and as I haven’t touched Java in quite a while, it may be even outdated.

I have a coworker who swears by it, particularly for C development.

A shocking amount of microcontroller manufacturers have eclipse based IDEs for their chips. Thought that seems to be going out of style, luckily.
