Development Environment

Many uPortal developers use Eclipse, a free and open source Java IDE. You may choose to use other development environments instead of Eclipse, but uPortal is distributed with project files that will expedite the setup of uPortal in Eclipse.

Recommended Eclipse plugins include the following, most of which may be found in the Eclipse Marketplace:

  • M2Eclipse
  • Subclipse
  • Spring IDE
