Local script development

The blog has this article: How to edit scripts with your favorite editor?

However I found it quite confusing - it took me a long time to figure out how to get VM to sync. And quite weird - why do we need to be told you can edit javascript with your favourite editor?

Would there be interest in rewriting and updating it? Or perhaps writing a completely new article, and leaving the old one in place.

I was considering doing that - but I don't want to start if the PR is just going to be rejected after I've done all the work.

To give an outline of how I'd update it:

• Remove the "Hey you can edit scripts in your favourite editor" part, or at least rephrase it - I fail to see how being told that has any value.
• Update the screenshots where applicable.
• Be painfully clear how sync works.
• Include the @require option for local development.

Would such contribution be welcome?

And what would be the preferred way - write a completely new article, or change/rewrite the old one?

Start by reading the linked “How to edit scripts with your favorite editor?” article and checking how Violentmonkey sync and local @require development currently work. Done would mean an agreed rewrite or replacement with current screenshots and clear sync instructions, but the preferred article structure still needs maintainer confirmation.
