> How to build dApp Launchpad from source and run a local development environment for the tool itself.

## Build from source

1. Clone the repository:

   ```bash theme={null}
   git clone https://github.com/0xPolygon/dapp-launchpad.git
   cd dapp-launchpad
   ```

2. Build the CLI tool:

   ```bash theme={null}
   npm run build
   ```

   This generates `cli.js` inside the `bin` directory.

3. Install the built CLI globally:

   ```bash theme={null}
   npm run install-global
   ```

`dapp-launchpad` is now available as a global command.

## Develop locally on the tool itself

To modify the tool, start a watch process that rebuilds and reinstalls the CLI on every source file change:

```bash theme={null}
npm run dev
```

This means the global `dapp-launchpad` command is continuously updated as you edit the source.
