Is this not just vscode? Its definitely not eclipse, although from memory that could be served as a webapp through some fancy java to html thing.

It's on the landing page in the "Extensible and Open" section too.

While Theia incorporates certain components from Visual Studio Code, such as the Monaco editor, it is independently developed with a unique, modular architecture, Theia is not a fork of VS Code.
