 When developing features for Fleet, it may become necessary to run both Fleet Server and Kibana from source in order to implement features end-to-end. To faciliate this, we've created a separate guide hosted [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/x-pack/plugins/fleet/dev_docs/developing_kibana_and_fleet_server.md).
 
+## IDE config
+
+When using the gopls language server you may run into the following errors in
+the `testing` package:
+
+```bash
+error while importing github.com/elastic/fleet-server/testing/e2e/scaffold: build constraints exclude all Go files in  <path to fleet-server>/fleet-server/testing/e2e/scaffold
+```
+
+```bash
+/<path to fleet-server>/fleet-server/testing/e2e/agent_install_test.go.
+   This file may be excluded due to its build tags; try adding "-tags=<build tag>" to your gopls "buildFlags" configuration
+   See the documentation for more information on working with build tags:
+   https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/doc/settings.md#buildflags-string
+```
+
+In order to resolve the first issue you can add a `go.work` file to the root of
+this repo. Copy and paste the following into `go.work`:
+
+```go
+go 1.21
+
+use (
+  .
+  ./testing
+  ./pkg/api
+)
+
+```
+
+Solution for the second error depends on the ide and the package manager you are using.
+
+### neovim
+
+#### lazyvim package manager
+
+##### nvim-lspconfig plugin
+
+Add the following to your config files
+
+```lua
+{
+  "neovim/nvim-lspconfig",
+  opts = {
+    servers = {
+      gopls = {
+        settings = {
+          gopls = {
+            buildFlags = { "-tags=e2e integration cloude2e" },
+          },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+After these changes if you are still running into issues with code suggestions,
+autocomplete, you may have to clear your go mod cache and restart your lsp
+clients.
+
+Run the following command to clear your go mod cache
+
+```bash
+go clean -modcache
+```
+
+restart your vim session and run the following command to restart your lsp
+clients
+
+```vim
+:LspRestart
+```
