JavaScript editor within Eclipse [closed]

Eclipse HTML Editor Plugin

I too have struggled with this totally obvious question. It seemed crazy that this wasn’t an extremely easy-to-find feature with all the web development happening in Eclipse these days.

I was very turned off by Aptana because of how bloated it is, and the fact that it starts up a local web server (by default on port 8000) everytime you start Eclipse and you can’t disable this functionality. Adobe’s port of JSEclipse is now a 400Mb plugin, which is equally insane.

However, I just found a super-lightweight JavaScript editor called Eclipse HTML Editor Plugin, made by Amateras, which was exactly what I was looking for.
