| To build and debug using Visual Studio Code, install the [TypeScript + Webpack Problem Matchers](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=eamodio.tsl-problem-matcher) extension. | |||

| Because the latest version of the plugin requires recent changes to the Dafny language server, you will then need to change the `dafny.compilerRuntimePath` and `dafny.languageServerRuntimePath` extension settings to point to the `Dafny.dll` and `DafnyLanguageServer.dll` files from a local build of Dafny. See [here](https://github.com/dafny-lang/dafny/wiki/INSTALL#building-and-developing-from-source-code) for instructions on building Dafny locally. | |||
| To debug the extension from source, with a custom version of Dafny, you can use the launch configuration "Run with $DAFNY_DEV_SERVER", which looks at the environment variable `DAFNY_DEV_SERVER` to determine which Dafny CLI to use to run the language server. For example, if you have a local checkout of Dafny at location `/my/path/to/dafny`, you can set `DAFNY_DEV_SERVER` to `/my/path/to/dafny/Binaries/Dafny.dll`. | |||

I don't know how to set DAFNY_DEV_SERVER from VSCode. Does that mean you set up a global environment variable?
I ended up cloning your launch configuration and replace the variable by a hard coded value, so that I can choose what to run.

Yes that's what I did

Do you think I can make the above text clearer? I'm not sure how to make "environment variable" clearer.
