What is this?

Eclipse Theia Blueprint is a template for building desktop-based products based on the Eclipse Theia platform, as well as to showcase Eclipse Theia capabilities. It is made up of a subset of existing Eclipse Theia features and extensions and can be easily downloaded and installed on all major operating system platforms (see below). Documentation is available to help you customize and build your own Eclipse Theia-based product.

What is it not?

Eclipse Theia Blueprint is not a production-ready product. Therefore, it is also not meant to be a replacement for Visual Studio Code or any other IDE.

Repository structure

  • Root level configures mono-repo build with lerna
  • electron-app contains app to package, packaging configuration, and E2E tests.
  • theia-blueprint-product contains a Theia extension contributing the product branding (about dialogue and welcome page).
  • theia-blueprint-updater contains a Theia extension contributing the update mechanism and corresponding UI elements (based on the electron updater).

Build

yarn

Package the application

yarn package

Create a preview application (without packaging it)

yarn package:preview

Troubleshooting

Reporting feature requests and bugs

The features in Eclipse Theia Blueprint are based on Theia and the included extensions/plugins. For bugs in Theia please consider opening an issue in the Theia project on Github. Eclipse Theia Blueprint only packages existing functionality into a product and installers for the product. If you believe there is a mistake in packaging, something needs to be added to the packaging or the installers do not work properly, please open an issue on Github to let us know.
