change your perspective
Ambient
is a simplified view for your Eclipse
workbench. It is a "perspective" that loads as a plugin and has
some
great features for the beginning computer scientist:
- The
simplified interface helps students focus on coding instead of being
overwhelmed by a new IDE.
- The ability
to checkin and checkout projects using CVS lets students work on their
project from any computer or lab and always have their up-to-date work
ready for them.
- Project
submission is made easy with Duke's Submit tools.
- The Duke
Snarfer tool is also available together with Ambient.
- Updates are
easy to access through the Eclipse Update tool so that you can stay on
top of your coding as we make constant changes to Ambient in an effort
to improve your productivity.
