This page lists a few options to set up a productive development environment for working on Forgejo.
## VS Codium
[VS Codium](https://vscodium.com/) is an open source version of the Visual Studio Code IDE.
The [Go integration for Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/go) works
with VS Codium and is a viable tool to work on Forgejo.
First, run `cp -r contrib/ide/vscode .vscode` to create new directory `.vscode` with the contents of folder [contrib/ide/vscode](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/src/branch/forgejo/contrib/ide/vscode) at the root of the repository. Then, open the project directory in VS Codium.
You can now use `Ctrl`+`Shift`+`B` to build the gitea executable and `F5` to run it in debug mode.
Tests can be run by clicking on the `run test` or `debug test` button above their declaration.
Go code is formatted automatically when saved.
## Emacs
Emacs has [a Go mode](https://github.com/dominikh/go-mode.el) that can likely be used to work on Forgejo's code base.
Do you know how to configure it properly? Why not document that here?
## Vim
Vim has [a Go plugin](https://github.com/fatih/vim-go) that can likely be used to work on Forgejo's code base.
Do you know how to configure it properly? Why not document that here?
## GoLand
Clicking the `Run Application` arrow on the function `func main()` in `/main.go`
can quickly start a debuggable Gitea instance.
The `Output Directory` in `Run/Debug Configuration` MUST be set to the
gitea project directory (which contains `main.go` and `go.mod`),
otherwise, the started instance's working directory is a GoLand's temporary directory
and prevents Gitea from loading dynamic resources (eg: templates) in a development environment.
To run unit tests with SQLite in GoLand, set `-tags sqlite,sqlite_unlock_notify`
in `Go tool arguments` of `Run/Debug Configuration`.
