| # Tips for developing Dawn code |
| |
| - Set up your IDE to use clangd: |
| - Set `"custom_vars": { "checkout_clangd": True }` in `.gclient` |
| (or just use `standalone-maximal.gclient`). |
| - Point your IDE to the binary at |
| `third_party/llvm-build/Release+Asserts/bin/clangd`. |
| - Use the compile commands from `out/YourBuildDir/compile_commands.json`. |
| These are generated by `gn gen`. |
| - Build/run as much stuff as possible locally, to avoid finding bugs on CQ: |
| - Use `scripts/standalone-maximal.gclient` instead of `standalone.gclient`. |
| - Use `scripts/args-maximal.gn` as reference for building as much as possible |
| - Run `gn gen --check` to locally run the check that C++ includes match the |
| build files. |
