Leo, what do you think about actually adding the page instead of link to it?
Comment 4 Leo Ufimtsev CLA 2015-04-22 10:39:32 EDT
I'm not sure if it's in the proper format for that X-D. 

The articles there are quite official: "This is how it's suppose to be". 
My guide is more personal: "This is how I like doing things".

Maybe instead I could add it in the external section under:
https://www.eclipse.org/swt/docs.php

Thoughts?

Also there is the issue of keeping it up to date. A one-off may be time consuming but do-able, but updating it periodically would be veeerrrryyy time consuming and since it's php based I don't have good means of testing it before publishing either. And I update the guide quite a lot and quite frequently X-D.

It's a very detailed and nice documentation, Leo!
Niraj, can you please push the patch?

I think we could add it under the SWT Online Tutorials section on that page.
