The Eclipse IDE is a modern and open IDE for cloud and desktop. The Theia IDE is based on the Theia platform. The Theia IDE is available as a downloadable desktop application. You can also try the latest version of the Theia IDE online. For more details, see the Readme below.
The current download [1] is an Intel-only binary. Still it runs, even if slower (Rosetta), on arm64-based Macs for most scenarios.
However if you try to install extensions, like the C# extension [2], you get errors [3] because the extension use the version of dotnet that match the executing architecture (and not in a way that Rosetta can help)
