Choose File | New | Project… from the menu. The New Project wizard dialog comes up, with project type selection on the first page. Choose Plug-in Project from the Plug-in Development group and click Next.

Next as well. The following page allows you to choose the initial content
for your project from among several code examples. Choose Hello, World,
then click Finish.
A new project named org.example.hello will be created.
The IDE will also ask you if you want to switch to the Plug-in Development perspective; answer Yes.
