hello, there is something that i don't understand regarding the #soapbox . soapbox-fe is located in opt/pleroma/instance/static, and there i can see only few folders, but when i clone it from the gitlab, there are a bunch of other folders, and i cant find any of them on my server. so, how can i update the soapbox-fe with the changes that i did in app/soapbox/components/sidebar-navigation.tsx thanks @alex

Sounds like you need to build it with NODE_ENV=production yarn build then you can upload your files (from static) to the server.

i installed soapbox according to your instructions. so, opt/pleroma is the main folder for everything, right? https://soapbox.pub/install/

alex, this is what i don't understand. soapbox-fe with a bunch of folders, and the other one with few folders only. I understand that soapbox-fe static should be on the server, but it is hard to customize it in sublimetex. i mean i cant see the code properly. the soapbox-fe with a lot of folders inside, where should it be, please?

On the left, you have the source files. On the right you have the compiled output. You need to actually run a script to generate the new output when you change source files.

Install deps by running `yarn` (no arguments), followed by `NODE_ENV=production yarn build`. That will give you the compiled output. Find it in `./static`, a gitignored directory in the root of the repo.

Take a look at the readme for instructions on compiling it.
