+### Hacking on haskell-language-server
+
+#### Introduction tutorial
+Pepeiborra [wrote an tutorial](https://github.com/pepeiborra/hls-tutorial) on writing a plugin in HLS.
+
+#### Test your hacked HLS in your editor
+If you want to test HLS while hacking on it, follow the steps below.
+
+To do once:
+- Open some codebase on which you want to test your hacked HLS in your favorite editor
+- Configure this editor to use your custom HLS executable
+  - With Cabal: 
+    - On Unix systems: `cabal exec which haskell-language-server`
+    - On Windows: `cabal exec where haskell-language-server`
+  - With Stack: `$(stack path --dist-dir)/build/haskell-language-server/haskell-language-server`
+
+To do every time you changed code and want to test it:
+- Build HLS
+  - With Cabal: `cabal build exe:haskell-language-server`
+  - With Stack: `stack build haskell-language-server:exe:haskell-language-server`
+- Restart HLS
+  - With VS Code: `Haskell: Restart Haskell LSP Server`
