+Eclipse
+=======
+
+You can generate an Eclipse project by running:
+
+.. code::
+
+ ./mach ide eclipse
+
+See also the `Eclipse CDT <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Eclipse/Eclipse_CDT>`__ docs on MDN.
+
+Visual Studio
+=============
+
+You can run a Visual Studio project by running:
+
+.. code::
+
+ ./mach ide visualstudio
+
+.. _CompileDB back-end-compileflags:
+
+CompileDB back-end / compileflags
+=================================
+
+You can generate a :code:`compile_commands.json` in your object directory by
+running:
+
+.. code::
+
+ ./mach build-backend --backend=CompileDB
+
+This file, the compilation database, is understood by a variety of C++ editors / IDEs
+to provide auto-completion capabilities. You can also get an individual compile command by
+running:
+
+.. code::
+
+ ./mach compileflags path/to/file
+
+This is how the :ref:`VIM <VIM>` integration works, for example.
