The Active Ecosystem of Eclipse Theia Adopters

We’re pleased to call attention to a compelling article by Thomas Froment at the Eclipse Foundation: “The Active Ecosystem of Eclipse Theia Adopters: A Tour of Diverse Tools and IDEs.”

For those in the community—whether you’re already using Theia or exploring it as a future path—it’s common to ask: How are others using this framework? What domains, what workflows, what architectures?

This article provides a clear, rich overview of real-world adopters: everything from maker and IoT tools (Arduino IDE 2.0, TI’s Code Composer Studio, Arm’s Mbed Studio) to enterprise engineering platforms, domain-specific environments (GPU profiling, machine-vision tooling), cloud-/browser-based IDEs for education and training, and AI-native extensions of Theia.

It’s particularly gratifying to see how the Eclipse Theia community is thriving, how modularity and open governance are enabling broad innovation, and how many organisations are choosing Theia as their foundation for next-generation tooling.

A special shout-out to Thomas Froment, the Eclipse Foundation, and the Eclipse Cloud Dev Tools working group for taking the time to map the landscape and share this story.

If you’re wondering “How can Theia work for my domain?” or “What others have done with it?”, this article is a great read.
