How can I turn updated source code into a game engine?

How do I...?
1

I’ve updated the engine’s source code a bit, and I want to test it, but I don’t know how to integrate it into the program…
Can anyone help me?

Hi!
If you modified the engine source code, those changes will not appear in the installed app until you run/build from source.
Here is a full test workflow:

  1. Open a terminal in the repository root.
  2. Install and prepare IDE resources:

cd newIDE/app npm install npm run import-resources

  1. Run automated checks:

npm run typecheck:ts npm run lint npm run test -- --watchAll=false npm run build:editor

  1. Start the editor in development mode:

npm run start

  1. Run the desktop Electron app with your modified source:

cd ../electron-app npm install npm run start

  1. If you want a distributable build (installer/exe), run:

npm run build

To verify everything manually, test these areas:

  • Open/create project, save, close, reopen.
  • Scene editor, events editor, object editor.
  • Preview/hot reload/debugger.
  • Asset loading (images/sounds/fonts).
  • Extensions and custom behaviors.
  • Export/build flow.
