Serious question: has Eclipse Che gotten easier to setup over the past year? I tried it out in May/June 2016, and setting it up was very difficult -- the documentation was sparse and I ran into errors all over the place. When I finally had it setup correctly, a new version came out, and updating killed all my existing workspaces.

So, has there been a focus on documentation, stability, and clear upgrade paths in the last year?

The docker-based install is a little tricky because we need access to the docker socket and have to create a mount point so that workspaces can be stored locally (so they're not lost with upgrades). It's likely that when you last tried it we had not completed the local storage option.

If you have a chance try this: https://www.eclipse.org/che/docs/setup/getting-started/index... - we've added interactive help but we've also tried to clarify the syntax needed. I'd love to hear what you think. Of course if you hit issues please let us know on the eclipse/che GitHub repo.
