How to edit a theme

[baba888]

Hello all,

 

I am trying to understand(based on the doc) how the files are organised.

 

I downloaded prestashop with the install-dev. From what I understand, when you install Prestashop with the dev installer, it enables you to use webpack to recompile every single files each time.

So today I was trying to modify the themes\classic\templates\catalog\_partials\miniatures\category.tpl  file.

 

I added a word in it to see if I could see it in the front end. The answer is no.

So I tried to run in the root file of the website this command:

npm run build

 

But I keep receiving this error:

npm ERR! missing script: build

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2019-07-23T09_26_36_660Z-debug.log

 

In the log I get this:

Do I need to run the command from another directory?

 

 

What am I doing wrong please?

 

 

Thank you.
