Hi,

Is there anyone know one or two good IDEs that support Seam Framework for free?
Thanks.

JBoss Studio is not free.

Preferrably some plug-in for eclipse.
There is NBFacelets plug-in for Netbeans, but it is not perfect.

Since Seam application is made of POJOs mainly, I don't think we need a special support for it.
Any decent IDE supports annotations, XML files an so on.
The only thing that isn't supported by the current IDEs (except for JBoss Studio, I think) is EL resolving in the views which I don't think it should be a problem if your employing integration tests for your application.

Yup since Seam is POJO based we are fine with Eclipse support. However I feel there is strong need to have free plugin for creating .xhtml files.

JBossTools is free and includes all of the features of JBDS. And it is the best IDE support you are going to get for Seam features (point and click stuff). Use NetBeans if you just need a Java editor.

The $99 bucks for JBDS to keep the project from sinking (trust that JBoss ain't making any money on you, you are feeding developers like yourself).

Sounds interesting. I will try to explore JBDS.
