Eclipse Plugin Resources

Eclipse Plugins show the true power of Eclipse extensible architecture. You can add new functionality to the IDE by extending the extension points contributed by the base plugins.

Here are some of the sites where you could search for Eclipse Plugins

• Eclipse.org
  Eclipse.org has long list of committed projects which add on new dimensions to the functionality of Eclipse.

  Other than this, there are a host of Technology Projects (incubation projects), few of which are finally converted to a committed project based on the popularity and other factors. 

• Eclipse-Plugins.2y.net
  Even though the domain name is kind of weird, this site is one of the first places to organize the different eclipse plugins into appropriate categories.

  Plugins are also rated and this helps you to make decisions when you have more than one plugin to accomplish the same task.

• EclipsePluginCentral.com
  Eclipse Plugin Central (EPIC) offers the Eclipse community a convenient, information-rich portal that helps software developers find open source and commercial Eclipse plug-ins, tools, and products that enhance the entire Java software development life-cycle.

  The interface is much better compared to Eclipse-Plugins.2y.net and searching for plugins is also a treat in this web site.

• OnEclipse Plugins
  OnEclipse is another web site devoted to improve the productivity of Eclipse Users. They also have a nice collection/categorization of Eclipse Plugins.
