Hi *,
With a little help from my Friends Fred and Mickael, I have just set
up
the development environment. Mickael asked me to post this here, to
make
it more visible.
The good news is that there already is a Development Environment
chapter
in devdoc [1] which covers the topic fairly well. Nothing comes to my
mind that would be missing there.
The bad news is that I have not found it when I was needing it.
Googling
for "jboss tools environment" [2] does not return it on the first
page.
Besides that, there is a couple of "Contribute" links in the footer of
http://tools.jboss.org/ but this important document is not linked
there.
A "Contributor's first steps" link refering to [1] could perhaps be
added there.
The "Write Code" link pointing to
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-devdoc/ sounds a little bit
misleading to me. "Get the Code" or perhaps "Checkout the Code"
would
describe better where it leads.

thanks for the feedback - I do agree as we have grown to have many
multiple repositories instead of "just one"
our guides for how to checkout and build have gotten weak in comparison.
What I would like to see is that jbosstools-devdoc gets a better index
page, better content and that we start linking
to that from the various relevant places (to get it show up in google
searches).
If you have ideas/suggestions to that and time before me, the simplest
is to do a PR against devdoc and I will happily merge them in.
