Hi @pkriens ,  
I just found this site via google: [Bndtools Developer Guide - Bndtools](https://bndtools.org/development.html)

It shows pretty good how to setup Eclipse IDE when you want to work on bndtools.  
But I could not find out, if some other page links to to it.

I think the content is pretty good, and should maybe go to some “How to contribute” page.  
e.g.

- the bnd [README.md](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd)
- and / or to [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)

Thoughts? I can create the PR then.

I added it to the README. You can add it to the CONTRIBUTING if you want.

This help highly appreciated!

Ok thanks.

Do you mean, adding the link to CONTRIBUTING or the page-content itself?

Having recently looked for such information, I think it should go here (as next sentence) :

</div>

On that subject:  
If it is ok, I would also add the info about how to run testcases also /development.html (and maybe later to CONTRIBUTING).  
This is currently hidden in [https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/blob/master/biz.aQute.tester.test/readme.md](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/blob/master/biz.aQute.tester.test/readme.md)

Took me a while to find that.

Btw: Is this info in the readme.md still valid? Or anything to add?

I added 2 PRs addressing this:

1. [add sentence about Eclipse Setup by chrisrueger · Pull Request #5826 · bndtools/bnd · GitHub](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/pull/5826)  
This basically adds the sentence about Eclipse Setup as @mnlipp suggested

1. a bit larger including website polishing, since I found more “hidden” / unlinked pages with good content.
