Installing the Scala IDE Play2 plug-in
--------------------------------------

The `Scala IDE Play2 plug-in <https://github.com/scala-ide/scala-ide-play2>`_ provides
first-class support for Play2 Route and Template files in Eclipse, for both Java and Scala
projects. In practice, what this means is that many of the features your are used to having
in the Scala or Java Editor (e.g., syntax highlighting, errors-as-you-type reporting, code
completion, hyperlinking) are also available when editing Play2 files.

The Play2 plug-in can be installed via **the same Eclipse update-site that you used to install
the Scala IDE**. The Play2 plug-in is listed under the *Scala IDE plugins* group.
