Martin Malina commented on JBDS-3965:
-------------------------------------

[~dgolovin], ok, so it's more tricky than I thought. Jan is telling me that right now when you finish the installation there is a button to launch devstudio, but only if you chose to install it. So this text could be shown conditionally. You're right that there are several possible scenarios based on what the user installs. But perhaps it's not too many options - basically you have these two main components - devstudio and cdk.
a) user installs both devstudio and cdk - in this case we would want to steer users towards using devstudio preferably, so it would make sense to show something similar to what I suggested and a link to launch devstudio
b) user installs devstudio and not cdk - in this case a button to launch devstudio is desired, but without any tips for using cdk
c) user installs cdk and not devstudio - in this case we could offer some suggestions on how to start from cli - perhaps a link to cdk get started

Maybe I'm missing something and it's more complicated than this, so consider this just an idea.

> Recently, [~rick_wagner] gave us some feedback on how he tried to use the devsuite installer and then connect to the docker daemon running in cdk.
> This is described here: JBIDE-22734
> What happened was that Rick didn't know he was supposed to start CDK from the Servers view. Having some prior knowledge of CDK, he started it from CLI. Then he went to the Docker Explorer view and wanted to connect to cdk's docker daemon.
> Normally, the docker connection will be created for you automatically, but that assumes you start the cdk adapter in Servers View.
> So here's a proposal:
> Perhaps at the end of the devsuite installer, just before devstudio is launched, we could briefly note that to start using CDK, you can start it from the Server view, once devstudio is launched?
> Please note that the actual name of the server adapter is probably Container Runtime Environment, but I'm not 100 % sure, this needs to be verified.
