It seems (from your patch SOLR-7555) you are wanting to work on both the Java and the Javascript code. I'm sure others can say more about development environments for messing with the Java - for now I've restrained myself to the JS code alone. When you start Solr, it unpacks the war into solr/server/solr-webapp/webapp. I point my IDE there, edit it all in-place, and can debug live in the browser from there. Then I have a simple rsync script that copies changes back to solr/webapp/web from where I generate patches. There's not too much more to it than that. I did review your changes in SOLR-7555 and they seemed very reasonable. I'm sure there's a lot more you could help with if you are interested. Upayavira
