When changing theme is not enough: swapping your IDE in Eclipse Che
summary
Eclipse Che swaps its Orion GWT IDE for a Monaco-based Theia engine and exposes a plugin-driven platform so each Kubernetes workspace can pick a different web IDE at runtime. The system runs IDE frontends in sidecar containers, supports remote sidecar plugins when dependencies can’t live in the IDE container, and already runs non‑IDE apps like Jupyter Notebook as IDE. Demo shows live swapping of GWT ↔ Theia, VS Code extension compatibility in progress, project import needs a manual git checkout today.
