@ionics In step3, you can try to use ANSWER_MODULE=/your-local-answer-source-code-path/incubator-answer ./answer build --with .....

It will use your local code instead of the remote code to build.

@LinkinStars what remote code? also, @ionics can you describe what UI changes you made?

@LinkinStars what remote code? also, @ionics can you describe what UI changes you made?

The remote code is the code that in github repo. Setting the ANSWER_MODULE environment variable allows the user to compile the plugin from local code. Because this user has modified the local UI code, it needs to be built from local.
