The Che-theia welcome page should provide information about how to use Che-theia and what this is all about

Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.

starting a workspace, the welcome page is showing up: Selection_425

There is not that much information out there except few actions:

  • new file
  • git clone
  • open files
  • etc.

I am not sure this is something that new user is expecting to do when coming to a new workspace (that is usually created from a devfile)

Describe the solution you'd like

Provide guidance:

  • few lines about what is a che workspace: your application and tools running in containers in a kubernetes pod. usually generated from a devfile and talk quickly about DEaC (Development Environment as Code)
  • talk about the project explorer to navigate the files of your project
  • talk about my workspace view to access to the containers + predefined commands
  • talk about the command palette
  • talk about plugins and features that could be enabled

following by links to the doc and chat.

Maybe get inspiration from https://github.com/eclipse-che/che-devfile-registry/blob/62b7dbdbbd0e359361cb6e61a9059dc9fbc8e617/devfiles/quarkus/didact.md
