Opening java project in eclipse

I downloaded as a zip the java project: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/appengine-endpoints-helloendpoints-java-maven

I'm not familiar with Eclipse. When I download this zip file and unzip to a folder in my desktop, how do I open the project in Eclipse?

You can do the following :

1 . Launch your eclipse

2 . Select File->Import from the menu bar

3 . Expand General and choose Archive file ( since you have a zip )

4 . Browse it from the downloaded location

Works ?

OR

Just unzip your eclipse project . Now you can use the same sequence of steps File->Import followed by General . Here pick Existing Projects into Workspace . Browse to your unzipped project .

RE-EDIT - ANSWER

I had a look at the project that you are trying to load . Its not an eclipse project . It is an Netbeans project . I was able to load it into Netbeans . So in other words do the following .

1 . Download NetBeans and install it on your system .Netbeans Download

2 . Import the project into NetBeans via File -> Import Project -> From Zip .

I suggest you do a few things

  1. Read this Guide on Maven and Eclipse
  2. Install Maven Integration (m2e)
  3. Import the File (archive) into your workspace
