Limitations of Xtext in a Web environment [message #1853249] |

For various reasons, I am contemplating about moving our existing Eclipse based Xtext setup into a Web based setup. The road seems to be pretty much clear to me (LSP + Theia + Eclipse Che). However, before I embark on this daunting road, I'd like to understand some more about the limitations.
This is what we do today:
- set of 4 Xtext DSLs
- integrated with Java (just references to types and operations)
- builder that generates an EMF model from the DSL model
- dependencies specified using Gradle (project dependencies are required)
- JUnit tests written in Java requiring test framework dependency and built EMF model
- tests should be runnable in the workspace (but not necessarily directly in the IDE but at least from the Terminal)
Today in Eclipse we heavily rely on the build path.
My question is: can this setup be realistically moved to Eclipse Che + Theia? What are the blockers? If this is not realistic: are there parts I could replace / rework to make this more realistic?
