# VSGO: Visual Studio project generation for buck targets VSGO is a project generator that generates Visual Studio project and solution files given buck target labels or patterns, with full functional IntelliSense and build/run/debug setup. The majority of heavy lifting is implemented in [BXL](https://buck2.build/docs/developers/bxl/), Buck Extension Language, which offers superb performance and handles incremental changes extremely well.  ## Quick Start Use project "buck2/examples/vscode" as an example, ``` mkdir modes && echo "" > modes/debug # One-time setup. Skip if there is one already exists. python prelude/ide_integrations/visual_studio/vsgo.py root//:main --mode_files modes/debug ``` This will generate project and solution files for the specific target and output file paths at the end. From there, you can continue with Visual Studio to browse, edit, and run/debug your buck target. To list all options and their help docs, run ``` python prelude/ide_integrations/visual_studio/vsgo.py --help ``` ## How It Works
