## 💻 How to Run a Local Build of Pynecone
Here is a quick guide to how the run Pynecone repo locally so you can start contributing to the project.
First clone Pynecone:
```
git clone https://github.com/pynecone-io/pynecone.git
```
Navigate into the repo:
```
cd pynecone
```
Install poetry and add it to your path (see [Poetry Docs](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation) for more info).
Install your local Pynecone build:
```
poetry install
```
Now create an examples folder so you can test the local Python build in this repository:
```
mkdir examples
cd examples
```
Create a project in this folder can be named anything but for the sake of the directions we'll use `example`:
```
mkdir example
cd example
```
Now Init/Run
```
poetry run pc init
poetry run pc run
```
All the changes you make to the repository will be reflected in your running app.
* We have the examples folder in the .gitignore, so your changes in pynecone/examples won't be reflected in your commit.
