Convert JBoss Central to an HTML5 page -------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-18813 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18813 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Enhancement Components: central Affects Versions: 4.3.0.Alpha1 Reporter: Fred Bricon Assignee: Fred Bricon Fix For: 4.3.0.Alpha1 Central Page requires new capabilities : - needs more customization (display content depending on user preferences) - needs to scale with JBDS-IS, Fuse content - access to more examples, with filtering capabilities Given that the existing page is pretty hard to maintain and suffers from scalability/UI bugs, we're heading towards an HTML5 approach : - use an embedded SWT Browser widget (or Java FX), depending on the platform compatibility - webpage and its content could be served remotely (as zip), and downloaded locally for offline use. this would give us more flexibility to update the content.
