There is no official release yet, but I ( Robert Munteanu ) am maintaining unnoficial preview builds at http://people.apache.org/~rombert/sling/ide/preview/ . Feel tree to give them a try.

Overall concepts

The Sling IDE tooling is centered around the Server and Module concepts. A Server is an instance of a Sling launchpad - or derivatives such as Adobe CQ - on which you deploy your content. A Module is a collection of resources grouped into a single Eclipse project which can be deployed onto one or multiple Servers.

The tooling supports content and bundle modules. Content modules typically hold Sling scripts - like JSP and ESP files, client-side resources like CSS and JSS file, but also arbitrary repository content. Bundle modules represent a single OSGi bundle.
