Lotus Domino Designer integrates many development technologies within a common look-and feel IDE including Lotus Domino, Java, XML, and Web. So your development teams can consolidate upon a single tool platform. It also opens the door to exciting new potential for the Lotus Domino application development experience. While continuing to employ features delivered in previous releases, developers can also leverage Eclipse services that enhance Lotus Domino programming with capabilities such as code compare, and search across multiple design elements. Or custom functionality can be added thru Eclipse IDE extension points.
