The New Sencha Eclipse Plugin http://www.sencha.com/blog/the-new-sencha-eclipse-plugin We’ve been working on various tools that make a Sencha developer’s life easier, and we started with Sencha Architect. Our new plugin makes it even easier to use Architect by providing a full set of code completion and code assistance features for Eclipse. en-us aditya@sencha.com Copyright 2012 2012-09-25T14:00:19+00:00 Comment by Chris @Owen - I agree.  I’ve had a hard time convincing colleagues to make the jump to ExtJS at work because of the learning curve so I’m the only one trying to use it.  The plugin would certainly help increase the chance of adoption here.  Too bad the Sencha folks are too short-sighted to see that. @Owen - I agree.  I’ve had a hard time convincing colleagues to make the jump to ExtJS at work because of the learning curve so I’m the only one trying to use it.  The plugin would certainly help increase the chance of adoption here.  Too bad the Sencha folks are too short-sighted to see that.

If you had confidence in your products to sell themselves and truly cared about your customer base, you would offer it separately.  I hope you’ll at least consider it.

What a problem to sell it separate, or include to ExtJs Package for additional price? For example i have Architect, and planing get EXtJs (i mean core lib license), and i no need most of what Complete is offering, but im really interesting in Eclipse plugin, cz just it can speedup my dev.

Did Sencha acquire that project or are the code bases separate? If I did buy Sencha Complete but was not interested in Architect would the Sencha VJET extension offer benefits for regular JavaScript development in Eclipse targeting ExtJs?

The way I view bundles is a benefit to the consumer in reduced prices for purchasing multiple products.  Sencha treats bundles as a way to try to force users to pay for things they don’t want. @Doug: Neither will we.  I don’t know the numbers, but it seems like a poor sales decision on their end.  At least it isn’t as insulting as the ones only available in Team.

Plus, we’re not paying $900 per developer head. You should unbundle this. Too bad it currently supports 4.1.0, two releases and 6 months behind the current release curve.
