+Editor / IDE integration
+========================
+
+You can use any editor or IDE to contribute to Firefox, as long as it can edit
+text files. However, there are some steps specific to mozilla-central that may
+be useful for a better development experience. This page attempts to document
+them.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Visual Studio Code is the recommended editor for Firefox development.
+ Not because it is better than the other editors but because we decided to
+ focus our energy on a single editor.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This page is a work in progress. Please enhance this page with instructions
+ for your favourite editor.
