The team at EclipseSource is back with Part 6 of their blog series about extending Che with a custom assembly.

In this post the team tackles creating a custom editor for the Ecore files that make up an EMF model. They’ll do this by creating a custom plugin with two extensions: one to register .ecore files as a special type and one to register a custom editor for .ecore files.

As always we hope this inspires you to customize Che for yourself, or get involved with the project.
