Hi!

I would like to ask how to setup a proper development environment in
Cloudstack. Until now I have been able only to download CS from git
cloudstack and deploy it with maven. Once I run jetty:run, I can see CS in
the browser. I even can do this with eclipse.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Setting+up+CloudStack+Development+Environment

The thing is that I want to create a plugin in Cloudstack. There are many
tutorials on how to do that but the thing is that every time I create
something, I need to re-deploy everything again and it takes at least 5
minutes to run the maven commands and see the changes.

Is there any way to develop the plugins or to do changes in the code "on
the fly"? so I can type something and press F5 in my browser and see the
changes immediately? What is the right project that I have to download to
do this?

If you make change to your plugin or any other component you don't have
to build the entire codebase since that takes a lot of time. Instead do
this;

mvn clean install -pl <path to your plugin>, client

this will only build the plugin and rebuilt client which is where all
plugins and dependencies get compiled in a war file (the mgmt server).
