    • UX revamp - onboarding

    Description

      (note: this is the original onboarding ticket, that got postponed out of Qt Creator 17 on account of resourcing issues, the Qt Creator 17 content was seriously stripped down)

      What

      • implement the first phase of onboarding new users with a prompting wizard that allows the user to change and validate their environment 
      • overview tab in home-mode 
      • Updated UI tour that presents the Qt Creator UI

      Why

      • The current onboarding is incomplete, especially to novice users
        • Specifically, Qt Creator may be in a unusable state (e.g. missing framework entirely or other components) 

      Dependencies

      • UX revamp - notifications 
      • Upon starting Qt Creator for the first time, Qt Creator shall prompt the user for answers to ensure that their tool has been set up properly
        • content
          • theme & language selection 
          • Qt version display / selection (and confirmation that it is what the user expects)
          • telemetry & sentry use confirmation
          • personalization questions
            • start with targets 
          • target display (and confirmation that it is what the user expects) 
          • summary of changes & possible prompt to restart 
        • The user can re-run this setup wizard later (initiated from the overview tab?) 
        • The confirmation pages provide means to invoke maintenance tool to change the environment when necessary (do not implement directly in Creator) 
      • Home-mode shall contain a new overview-tab
        • Get started actions
          • Take UI tour (is the description in the concept sufficient, is the tour depth sufficient?)
          • Create sample project
            • Bypass most parameters (filename only?)
            • Separate template (with an interactive element or few)? 
          • View Qt Creator documentation 
          • View Qt framework documentation
        • What happens when clicking the account-button? 
        • What is shown under "recommendations"?
          • OPEN Does content change as user consumes it or is the display static? 
      • OPEN Are recommendations displayed also in the other tabs (learning etc)?
