What text editor used to edit source code of consul in my local fork branch?

Hi. How to debug,test, or edit changes locally after forking consul? Do you recommend Xcode? or Visual Studio Code? Or Atoms?

Any suggestion helps. Thanks!

Hi @Justdoit2,

I usually use Visual Studio Code because of the handy plugins it has.

+1 for VSCode. I use it along with Microsoft’s vscode-go plugin for debugging Consul, or simply navigating its code base.

Check out Contributing to Consul for information making changes to Consul, and running its test suite.
