Building a Web-IDE based on Eclipse Theia for Smart Home
summary
A slim web IDE based on Eclipse Theia is capable of authoring, testing and deploying tiny Smart Home apps directly on a Raspberry Pi gateway; scaffolding uses Yeoman, the device-dependency editor uses JSON Forms, code editing uses Monaco with a JDT LSP, code generation is an existing Eclipse generator exposed as a REST service, tests and builds run via server-side CLI, and deployment copies a JAR to the local app store. A one-week team prototype demos toggling a real light.
