If you want to only make changes on the UI, you don't need a backend running from source. You can user the docker-compose install with a few customizations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Prerequisites
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Node (any recent version should work, we use 16.x to build)
 | 
						|
- Make (again, any recent version should work)
 | 
						|
- Docker and docker-compose
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Instructions
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Clone the git repo from https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik
 | 
						|
2. In the cloned repository, follow the docker-compose installation instructions [here](/docs/installation/docker-compose)
 | 
						|
3. Add the following entry to your `.env` file:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
    AUTHENTIK_IMAGE=goauthentik.io/dev-server
 | 
						|
    AUTHENTIK_TAG=gh-next
 | 
						|
    AUTHENTIK_OUTPOSTS__CONTAINER_IMAGE_BASE=goauthentik.io/dev-%(type)s:gh-next
 | 
						|
    AUTHENTIK_LOG_LEVEL=debug
 | 
						|
    AUTHENTIK_WEB_LOAD_LOCAL_FILES=true
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This will cause authentik to use the beta images.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
4. Add this volume mapping to your compose file
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    ```yaml
 | 
						|
    version: '3.2'
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    services:
 | 
						|
      # [...]
 | 
						|
      server:
 | 
						|
        # [...]
 | 
						|
        volumes:
 | 
						|
          - ./web:/web
 | 
						|
          - ./local.env.yml:/local.env.yml
 | 
						|
    ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    This makes the local web files and the config file available to the authentik server.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
5. Run `docker-compose up -d` to apply those changes to your containers.
 | 
						|
6. `cd web`
 | 
						|
7. Run `npm i` and then `npm run watch` to start the build process.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can now access authentik on http://localhost:9000 (or https://localhost:9443).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You might also want to complete the initial setup under `/if/flow/initial-setup/`.
