How do I run a local copy of this plugin for contributing

[ayhid]

Hello,
I want to contribute to this plugin and play around on development mode.

Do I have to install strapi separately and add the plugin ?

Hello @ayhid,

The things you need to do are:

• run strapi as separated project
• clone our repository
• do the soft link between your_strapi_directory/src/plugins and strapi-plugin-comments/build
• run plugin in development mode as well as strapi

That's the way we're working locally with multiple our plugins.
