Acceptance criteria:
[ ]* !!!TODO!!!: this issue was converted to epic from a simple story, the AC entries below need to be extracted into their own issues!
[ ]* check whether non-CT bound apps appear on the app launcher fine (and vanish when the definition is gone).
[ ]* it is verified that the CT-powered content app reflects the changes of the related CT definition transparently to the user (should be covered by the existing functionality, and the tests!)
[ ]* app launcher configuration is config env sensitive and I always see only those aps that are relevant to the current state of the app descriptor registry in my environment.
[ ]* AdminCentral reacts on the environment switch and actualises the UI (possibly restarting or closing the apps)
[ ]* users can define app launcher layout per environment. However, the system app launcher layout "skeleton" remains present in the system and can be used a default. Current approach: one can decorate the "stock" app launcher layout that we provide.
Story Points: 13

 Description   

End goal:

  • App launcher reflects the current state of the app related configs as quickly as possible and with minimal requirements from the user (at least no browser reloading!)
    We seem to have problems with:
  • app launcher not reflecting the apps provisioned via S3-based config sources (may be already covered by the linked content type story).
  • content type provisioning does not seem to work ootb (done in the scope of MGNLCT-177)
