In automotive/embedded, Eclipse hosts the safety-certified OSS ThreadX RTOS (formerly Azure RTOS), which runs on 10B+ devices, https://finance.yahoo.com/news/eclipse-foundation-showcases-successful-open-100000000.html https://finance.yahoo.com/news/eclipse-foundation-showcases-...
- gkbrk 3y agoTons of modern and really critical development happens on Eclipse-based environments. Two examples I can think of off the top of my head are - DBeaver (very widely used to connect to production databases) - STM32Cube IDE (for embedded development in all sorts of devices)
