Unable to Create Portlet Project in Eclipse Photon for Websphere

I have installed a fresh copy of Eclipse Photon along with the Liberty server. I followed the steps just as indicated in the IBM docs/videos. Yet I am still not able to find anything portal or portlet related when doing File > New > Project... nor File > New > Other...

Is there a plugin that I might be missing? Should I be looking in another area to create a portlet from scratch for IBM WebSphere?

Did the steps include installing the Liberty tools?
