Rename Create:Editor group to Create:IDE
More details can be found in Rename Create:Editor to reflect new focus (Product#5491 - closed)
The Create::Editor group's scope of work has significantly changed and the group name no longer accurately reflects the categories within.
This MR renames the group to Create::IDE.
Why "IDE"?
- The group no longer oversees a the broad "editing" experience, or even "code editing" experience, within GitLab. groupsource code and groupknowledge are both responsible for significant aspects of the code and content editing components. Keeping the name
Editor
or using a broad derivative would introduce confusion. - A significant amount of our focus is on Remote Development, however the Web IDE and GitLab Workflow extension are not really "remote" development. We also want to avoid having to re-name the existing category
Remote Development
because of its clear purpose and place in the market. - IDE describes both the features of the group and the places in which we expect users to interact with our features.
