Hello, you can read more about the product on our support hub [support.primero.org](http://support.primero.org/) and documentation is under the “Documentation” tab. Source code is available on our open-source repository: [github.com/primeroIMS/](http://github.com/primeroIMS/). ---

Hey @aashim1garg It would be best to look at the version 2 development branch and build on that [https://github.com/primeroIMS/primero/tree/development\_v2](https://github.com/primeroIMS/primero/tree/development_v2) Its a React app built on top of a Ruby API so should be pretty straightforward to build some nice themes ---

i just installed the docker and docker-compose but when i went into the docker directory it is showing cd: docker: No such file or directory ![Screenshot from 2020-03-10 19-41-11](https://support.primero.org/uploads/primero/original/1X/939ad13658599d58379788920703a59529953226.png) ---

Hi @aashim1garg You need to check out the primero source code from the repository. For example: ``` mkdir ~/Dev/tmp cd ~/Dev/tmp git clone https://github.com/primeroIMS/primero.git cd primero ``` We then need to get the specific branch for v2 work. To fetch a specific branch, you need to do this: ``` git fetch origin ``` This will fetch all of the remote branches for you. With the remote branches in hand, you now need to check out the branch you are interested in, giving you a local working copy: ``` git checkout -b development_v2 origin/development_v2 ``` You can check this by doing `git branch` which should show you development\_v2. Then move into the docker folder and follow the rest of the README such as install Solr etc. `docker.md` is a markdown file and so part of the documentation ---

I was making the proposal and was having some doubts regarding it. Like in Improving the front end skins what we have actually do the content is properly divided in the sections and have information in them. Do we have to add features in the website or enhance the website in mobile view? ---

We can enhance the footer designs or add more information to it. ---

Thanks for [the issue you filed](https://github.com/primeroIMS/primero/issues/26)!.I think though that you filed it against the primero web site and as I understand it the user customization work is about the actual primero app itself.
