Theia IDE Adds AI Capability with Theia AI!
In a prolific series of articles, Jonas, Maximilian, and Philip of EclipseSource, announced and documented Theia AI. Theia AI simplifies developing AI-powered tools and IDEs by providing a robust framework including the required infrastructure, user interfaces, reusable components and patterns that proved to be useful in practice. Theia AI takes care of the foundational AI integration work, allowing engineers to concentrate on what matters most: delivering innovative, domain-specific solutions. This article is a good place to start to learn about the new AI capabilities of Theia IDE. See their blog for a number of additional informative articles.

Cedric Brun on Modeling with Sirius Web and SysON
Cedric Brun of Obeo posted notes and his presentation from the Models 2024 conference in Linz, Austria as part of the Industry Day. His talk covers two of our Eclipse Cloud Dev Tools initiatives: Sirius Web, part of the Eclipse Sirius project, and Eclipse SysON, a SysMLv2 modeling tool built on Sirius.
Guesstimating with Sirius Web
In a related article and accompanying video, Cedric demonstrates some neat features of Sirius Web with a prototype to use Monte Carlo simulations to guesstimate. OK, I had to dig up some old CompSci texts to remember how these times worked.
Contributor Award for 3Q Goes to STMicroelectronics and EclipseSource
The Cloud DevTools Contributor Award for 3Q goes to Hans-Ake Gustafsson, Kostiantyn Kirenko, from STMicroelectronics, and Olaf Lesenich, from EclipseSource, for their exceptional and strategic contributions to the Open VSX project and deployment at open-vsx.org. Their work significantly contributed to the improvement of the stability, security, technical governance, and development process of Open VSX. Their continued efforts and persistence in establishing reproducible performance and stability metrics have been pivotal in enhancing the platform's uptime and reliability.
