# Map of PDE Plug-ins

The PDE provides a comprehensive plug-in development environment.

PDE itself is divided up into a number of separate plug-ins. The following table shows which API packages are found in which plug-ins (the most commonly referenced API packages are highlighted). This table is useful for determining which plug-ins a given plug-in should include as prerequisites.

API Package | Plug-in id
`org.eclipse.pde.core[.*]` | `org.eclipse.pde.core`
`org.eclipse.pde.ui[.*]` | `org.eclipse.pde.ui`
