--------------------------------------
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 User Stories and Flows.gliffy
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.
