This session will give a guided tour through the new features and changes in Eclipse Photon and Eclipse IDE 2018-09. Although especially JDT has been moved on quite much with support of new Java versions, this talk will focus on the other features of the Eclipse Platform and leaving JDT details to a separate talk at ECE. You will see usability improvements, code mining for enhancing the text editor information, useful new API for platform developers and neat features for users. Besides visible changes, the platform project team has paid special attention on stability, performance and resource consumption tuning. In this talk, we will give some insights how the team has worked on that.
