Eclipse Che is both a cloud IDE and an SDK for creating a custom cloud IDE by packaging extensions you author into an assembly. Che can be used as a desktop IDE, embedded IDE, or a hosted IDE.
High performance, open source software developer environments in the cloud.

Che contains:
* A cloud IDE
* A set of extensions for many programming languages, source code systems, builders and runners
* A kernel for loading extensions authored as plug-ins
* Developer tooling for building and and assembling plug-ins to create new IDEs
* A set of platform APIs for developer microservices (e.g., 'build project' or 'search workspace')
* A CLI for interacting with platform APIs
* An Eclipse plug-in for editing, building and running Che projects from within Eclipse
### Cloud IDE
Use your browser to program on any machine in any language. Edit, build, debug and deploy projects bound to source repositories. [Use Che as an IDE] (https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/import-a-project)

### Workspace Server
Create developer environments with APIs. Add your project types, embed custom commands and host on any infrastructure. [Use Che as a Workspace Server] (https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/create-workspaces-and-projects)

![Eclipse Che](https://codenvy.com/images/image-editor@1x.png "Eclipse Che")
### Plug-Ins
Use Che's built-in language plug-ins or write packaged extensions that transform Che's IDE into new tools and assemblies. [Write Che IDE Plug-Ins] (https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/extension-development-workflow)

The IDE is a browser application that is generated by compiling extensions into JavaScript. Extensions can invoke server-side APIs that run within the Che kernel. The kernel is a servlet-based framework that loads and manages extensions. The kernel can be run in any servlet container with a default bundling of Tomcat.

Che can be installed on any OS that supports Java 1.8 - desktop, server or cloud, and Maven 3.1.1 or higher. It has been tested on Ubuntu, Linux, MacOS and Windows. Java, GWT, GIN and JavaScript are the core technologies used to build Che.

### AngularJS plugin configuration
This plugin requires npm, Yeoman, Bower and Grunt to be installed.

* npm setup guide : https://github.com/npm/npm
npm is bundled with nodejs which can be downloaded from: http://nodejs.org/download/

* Yeoman (and bower / Grunt dependencies can be installed with: npm install -g yo)

### Add your extensions to Che
1. Create, build and compile a Che extension into a Java JAR file. [Tutorial is here] (http://docs.codenvy.com/che/). You can create extension JARs within Che or your favorite IDE. Build extensions in Eclipse gives you super dev mode for Eclipse, which makes incremental compilation fast.

2. Copy the extension's JAR file to ```/assembly-sdk/target/tomcat-ide/ext``` directory of Che.

3. Execute ```$ ./extInstall.sh``` script. Che will be re-compiled with your extension. This will take a few minutes.

4. Restart Che.
