[Jan Richter (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3635?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13183902#comment-13183902 ] 

Jan Richter commented on JBDS-3635:
-----------------------------------

[~dgolovin] You just broke both the tests and the installer itself with https://github.com/redhat-developer-tooling/developer-platform-install/pull/61 
It does not work in any form or shape I tried - it just presents a blank window.

This is what I'm getting from the console:
{noformat}file:///home/jrichter/Git/developer-platform-install/browser/angular-messages.js Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
Uncaught (in promise) Error: Error: XHR error loading file:///home/jrichter/Git/developer-platform-install/browser/angular-messages.js
	Error loading file:///home/jrichter/Git/developer-platform-install/browser/angular-messages.js as "angular-messages" from file:///home/jrichter/Git/developer-platform-install/browser/main.js{noformat}

Looks like an unresolved import for angular-messages.js file.

> It would be great if the installer allowed the user to use some of the required tools they have already installed. 
> The idea is to detect if the dependencies are already present and let the user decide if they want to use them, or install new ones. Also, it could let the user select the tools themselves if they want to use a different installation than detected, etc.
> The confirmation page we currently have looks like the place to put all this, since it already displays most of the stuff that is going to get installed. Anyway, I have tried to modify it and squeeze the controls in and this is how the selection turned out (imagine the messages looking a bit smarter):

> [~dgolovin] & [~crobson], what's your opinion on this?
