Dev Center is an online administrative portal for managing developer accounts, creating applications and theme records, and uploading, installing, and testing code before deploying it to a production site. It’s separate from your local development environment where you write code and manage source control repositories. Refer to Set Up Your System for more information about configuring Dev Center. Before you start developing applications and themes, you’ll need to set up a local development environment. At a minimum, you need a text editor (e.g., Notepad++, Sublime Text) and source control system (e.g., Git, Subversion, Mercurial). After you set up your local development environment, use Developer Tools to build-out local directories with the necessary files to start developing applications and themes. Since Kibo releases updates to the Core theme through Git, we highly recommend that you use Git as your source control system. Kibo also provides several command-line tools that leverage Git to make creating and updating themes and applications easier.Documentation Index
