With the arrival of Eclipse Neon comes several improvements regarding usability. Sometimes these changes are right on the spot and are a delight for the user, but sometimes these changes make users angry when they are forced to work in a different way than the one they were used to-like when Microsoft decided to use the ribbon instead of toolbar in Office or when they got rid of the Start menu in Windows and replaced it with Metro. However, one the most noticeable aspects of new software is changes made to the user interface.

For the user, things just work or they don’t. My love for computer science is endless and my current research interest is model driven development.Įclipse Neon comes with many improvements in terms of features, API and UI too. Sometimes it’s hard to notice all the hard work put into the inner workings of Eclipse. My programmer journey started writing code in QBasic and since then I have been experimenting with different programming languages and O.S. My love affair with computers started with a 286x with fabulous 16 colors and 765Kb of RAM.
