Hello folks. PSA. The

py_editable_in_resolve

option is a game-changer for IDE module discovery. It obviates setting the PYTHONPATH via a .env file (for first-party code), and fixes some ikky extension integration issues (For example, with pylint and VSCode). Not sure how much awareness there is of this superb feature when it comes specifically to VSCode/IDE integration, because none of the IDE helper docs mention this.

Thank you! Adding a note about that feature to IDE docs is an excellent idea! Would you please file a pull request?

I am happy to do that, is there a guide to contributing to the pants website? I would appreciate an example PR, say.

The docs are in the pantsbuild repo: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/tree/main/docs/docs During release (iirc) they get built and deployed to the website via https://github.com/pantsbuild/pantsbuild.org So, make a PR against the

main

branch of

pantsbuild/pants

. A brief explanation of the process is available here: https://www.pantsbuild.org/stable/docs/contributions#documentation-fixes

Thank you! I will get to this over the weekend.

Sorry. I took a glance, but I haven't had time to think through the implications of reorganizing the docs. Is there a more minimal change you can do?

Addressed your comments @happy-kitchen-89482! Sorry for the delay.
