### Configuring Home Assistant
You will need to have an instance of Home Assistant set up. See our guide on [setting up a development environment](https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/en/development_environment.html).
Next step is to configure Home Assistant to use the development mode for the frontend. Do this by updating the frontend config in your `configuration.yaml` and set the path to the home-assistant-polymer repository that you cloned in the last step:

## Building the Polymer frontend
## Building the frontend
If you're making changes to the way the frontend is packaged, it might be necessary to try out a new packaged build of the frontend in the main repository (instead of pointing it at the frontend repo). To do so, first build a production version of the frontend by running `script/build_frontend`.
To test it out inside Home Assistant, run the following command from the main Home Assistant repository:
```shell
$ pip3 install -e /path/to/home-assistant-polymer/
$ pip3 install -e /path/to/hass/frontend/
$ hass --skip-pip
```
