 for more details.
 
+## Build and Import (VS Code)
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Node.JS, >= 8.9.1
+
+### Build
+
+1. Navigate via command line to the `./tools/` directory and install dependencies:
+
+    ```
+    npm install
+    ```
+
+2. Run the `build-grammar` script to generate the json file.
+
+    ```
+    npm run build-grammar
+    ```
+
+3. The .json file will be generated in `./syntaxes/` at the root of the project. You will need to copy it in to VS Code manually.
+
+    1. Locate the VS Code installation directory and navigate to to `resources/app/extensions/powershell/syntaxes`
+
+    2. Rename `powershell.tmLanguage.json` to `powershell.tmLanguage.json_default`
+
+    3. Copy `powershell.tmLanguage.json` from `./syntaxes/` within the project folder to where you just renamed the file under VS Code's path.
+
+4. If VS Code is already running you will need to run "Reload Window" from the command pallete.
