Hello,

Is there a way to run the frontend for development without building the whole platform from source?

Im following [docs here](https://docs.opennebula.io/6.4/integration_and_development/references/fireedge_sunstone_dev.html).

If this is at all possible, ideally I’d like it to work with an instance of OpenNebula running in another host (online).

Is this something at alla possible? I did not find specific details about this possible workflow.

Thanks

Have you tried with [https://minione.opennebula.io](https://minione.opennebula.io)? 😉

Hello! I had a look at it but wasn’t sure it was what I was looking for. Is it possible to have a development environment when running minione? As in, being able to modify bits of the UI and seeing changes without having to re-build every time?

Hi @guille,

Currently, it is not possible to use FireEdge Sunstone in development mode without building from the source. It is only available on Ruby Sunstone at the moment.

Regards,

Thanks for the answer @fborges

I did not succeed trying to run Ruby Sunstone in standalone either.

Running the `scons` command ends with success in the root folder

Running `install.sh` ends with some errors, but I don’t know if it is necessary to be able to run just the frontend
