Eclipse Foundation Support for the Black Community

Wednesday, June 10, 2020 - 10:00 by Mike Milinkovich

The events of the past several weeks have reminded us yet again that racism remains a reality in our society.

After we announced the release of Eclipse Theia 1.0 and published a blog about it, we received a number of questions about the differences between Theia and Visual Studio (VS) Code and why we’re calling Theia “a true open source alternative” to VS Code. Here are some clarifications I hope will help people understand the differences between the two and the value of Theia.
