Hello devs, I would like to update you on my progress regarding the project. I've downloaded the sources and built them successfully. I've also started working on the plugin layout which took a bit of a look around to find the right way to do it.
I would like to ask something at this point. I am able to create a "view" in eclipse which shall display in a window, the email templates available and clicking on a template would open it in the editor. Now, which of the following should I focus on? - A button in the menu which opens the view in the workbench - A perspective which displays just the template list view and an editor Also, I would like to know if I can use a cloud platform to develop this project. It would be easier for me since I work behind a proxy in my college and also, it would save me the hassle of manually backing up my work everyday.
