# Contributing
## Development Workflow
- [VS Code prerequisites](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites)
```shell
yarn
yarn vscode
yarn watch # Visit http://localhost:8080 once completed.
```
Any changes made to the source will be live reloaded.
If you run into issues about a different version of Node being used, try running
`npm rebuild` in the VS Code directory.
If changes are made to the patch and you've built previously you must manually
reset VS Code then run `yarn vscode:patch`.
Some docs are available at [../src/node/app](../src/node/app) on how code-server
works internally.
## Build
- [VS Code prerequisites](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites)
```shell
yarn
yarn build
node build/out/entry.js # You can run the built JavaScript with Node.
yarn binary # Or you can package it into a binary.
```
