Welcome, Aptana Users

There are quite a few PHP plugins for Eclipse. When we started the development of nWire for PHP, we decided to focus on the official Eclipse PHP support: Eclipse PDT. However, we received numerous requests from users using Aptana, to support the Aptana Studio PHP Plugin.

Aptana is an important member of the open-source community in general and of the Eclipse ecosystem specifically. Recently, they decided to unite their efforts and join the PDT team. Aptana Studio site is now hosted in Aptana.org and the Aptana PHP installation instructions point to the installation of PDT.

For Aptana users, there's an added value: nWire for PHP can now be installed along with the rest of the Aptana toolset. So, Aptana users, go ahead and download nWire for a free, fully functional, 30 day trail.

Update: after several questions and requests, I want to make it clear: previous version of Aptana (1.5 and earlier) will not work with nWire which requires PDT. I do invite you to try out PDT.

Update 2: There's a new version 3 of Aptana Studio which moves away from PDT. For more information, read this post.
