# Contributing to Eclipse Java development tools Thanks for your interest in this project. ## Project description The JDT project provides the tool plug-ins that implement a Java IDE supporting the development of any Java application, including Eclipse plug-ins. It adds a Java project nature and Java perspective to the Eclipse Workbench as well as a number of views, editors, wizards, builders, and code merging and refactoring tools. The JDT project allows Eclipse to be a development environment for itself. * https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/eclipse.jdt ## Developer resources Information regarding source code management, builds, coding standards, and more. * https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/eclipse.jdt/developer The project maintains the following source code repositories * http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.core.binaries.git * http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.core.git * http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.debug.git * http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.git * http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git This project uses Bugzilla to track ongoing development and issues. * Search for issues: https://eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?product=JDT * Create a new report: https://eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=JDT Be sure to search for existing bugs before you create another one.
