Top 10 Fastest Rising Solutions on Eclipse Marketplace

Eclipse Marketplace Client (MPC) is becoming a popular way to install new plugins into Eclipse. There are 265 solutions available from MPC, so a great selection is developing. I recently blogged the top 10 solutions on Eclipse Marketplace but I thought it would be interesting to discover what are the new solutions people are finding on Eclipse Marketplace.    Therefore, I present the top 10 Fastest Rising Solutions during the month of January on Eclipse Marketplace.

The top 4 new solutions added to Eclipse Marketplace during the month of January were:

1. Eclipse Color Theme – this plugin has an amazing 1243 installs in the first month.  Very popular!
2. SpringSource Tool Suite 2.5.2  – a very respectable 859 installs in January
3. MouseFeed –  298 installs and seems like a handy plugin to remind developers about keyboard shortcuts
4. JPA Diagram Editor – 231 installs in January and a new Eclipse project

What were the existing solutions that had the biggest jump in overall rank?  Below are the 6 that made the biggest jump  from December to January.

1. Apache IvyDE
2. Mylyn Mantis Connector
