Some use an IDE, like IntelliJ, Pycharm, RustRover or +Visual Studio, while others prefer a more humble text editor like Atom/Pulsar, Emacs or Vim. + +Most provide help when working with Avro via JSON support (for JSON schemata) by offering syntax highlighting and +formatting. Some provide more help, for example syntax highlighting for IDL schemata, code completion, error +highlighting and more. + +The IDEs and editors that we know to support Avro better than just editing schemata as JSON files are listed below in +alphabetical order. + +## Eclipse + +Eclipse is a free IDE that provides extensions via the [Eclipse Marketplace](https://marketplace.eclipse.org/). + +### Avroclipse + +<img style="float: right; object-fit: contain; width: 160px; height: 160px;" src="eclipseAvroclipse.png"/>[Extension](https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/avroclipse) ([source](https://github.com/dvdkruk/avroclipse)) + +Released in 2015, this plugin received its last update in December 2019. + +Features for IDL files: + +* Syntax Highlighting +* Code Completion +* Error Highlighting + +## Emacs + +Sometimes ridiculed as an operating system, Emacs is a rich text editor.
