Eclipse Theia Last updated July 30, 2025 Open-source framework for building IDEs
Eclipse Theia is an Eclipse open source project providing the Theia Platform and the Theia IDE.
The Eclipse Theia Platform is a free and open-source framework for building IDEs and tools based on web technologies. [ 3] Theia-based applications can be deployed as desktop and web applications . [ 4] It is implemented in TypeScript and emphasizes extensibility . [ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
With Theia AI , the platform provides explicit support for building tools and IDEs with artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. [ 8] [ 9]
The Eclipse Theia IDE is an IDE for desktop devices and the cloud based on the Theia platform, an open alternative to Visual Studio Code . [ 10] [ 11] It features a highly customizable developer experience and uses Theia AI to support AI features (also referred to as the AI-powered Theia IDE , an open alternative to GitHub Copilot or Cursor ). [ 12] [ 13] [ 14] The AI-powered Theia IDE includes Theia Coder , an open, adaptable and transparent AI coding assistant and integrates the Model Context Protocol (MCP). [ 15] [ 16] [ 17]
While Eclipse Theia incorporates certain components from Visual Studio Code , such as the Monaco editor, it is independently developed with a modular architecture and is not a fork of VS Code. [ 18] [ 19]
Usage Arduino IDE 2.0 is based on Eclipse Theia, replacing the Processing -based IDE. [ 30] Code Composer Studio by Texas Instruments uses Eclipse Theia as the framework for its development environment for Texas Instruments processors and microcontrollers. [ 31] [ 32] Mbed Studio by Arm is an IDE for embedded development, focusing on Arm microcontrollers, and is built on Eclipse Theia. [ 33] [ 34] The Theia IDE itself demonstrates the capabilities of Eclipse Theia as a general-purpose IDE, running on both desktop and cloud environments. [ 35] [ 36] Sokatoa is a tool for GPU profiling, analysis, and debugging workflows for Android, built on Eclipse Theia. [ 37] The CDT Cloud Blueprint provides a reference architecture for cloud-based C/C++ development environments using Eclipse Theia. [ 38] [ 39] logi.cloud by logi.cals is a modern engineering platform for industrial automation, developed using Eclipse Theia. [ 40] The Coffee Editor is a web-based modeling tool that showcases Eclipse Theia's integration with frameworks such as Eclipse GLSP and Sprotty. [ 41] [ 42] VUEngine Studio is a development environment for creating games and applications using the VUEngine framework, built on Eclipse Theia. [ 43] Smartface is an IDE for developing cross-platform mobile applications, leveraging the Eclipse Theia framework. [ 44] Record Evolution Studio (ReSWARM) is a collaborative platform for IoT and AI model training and deployment, based on Eclipse Theia. [ 45] Code RealTime is a tool for developing real-time applications with debugging and collaboration features. [ 46] [ 47] QuickConnect Studio by Renesas is a development environment for prototyping and deploying embedded systems, built on Eclipse Theia.
