"Eclipse RAP on e4"
What do you like best about Eclipse RAP?

I used to develop desktop applications based on Eclipse RCP. The development became much simpler after we switched to e4 . The Eclipse RAP has this possibility too.

You can write your application entirely in Java.

If you are familiar with SWT/JFace/OSGi ecosystem from RCP that is the same for RAP with some additions.

The visual editor for UI is free, and here are free add-ons too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Eclipse RAP?

There is not too much and detailed documentation about e4, and some are outdated too.

You have dig the Internet for information on e4.

Uneasy to build the final product. (war) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Eclipse RAP is Just amazing"
What do you like best about Eclipse RAP?

Eclipse Remote Application platform integrates well with proven technologies such as OSGi and JEE that's the best thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Eclipse RAP?

Eclipse uses a custom windowing toolkit called SWT; on each platform it relies on the native graphical layer. On Linux, it relies on Gtk+ (although it's also possible to use Motif), which in my experience (and other's) has performance problems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
