Broadleaf Commerce Discussion Forums

Hi. I am trying to extend my hand into open source software. The product seems well documented and active, so I wanted to try and get involve. I walked through the getting started guide with the predefined workspace. I want to now use the code from github so that I am begin to look at bugs and explore the most recent code. I am using eclipse and having trouble setting it up since this is my first open source.

Basically, I have forked and cloned the DemoProject code, and am trying to get it into eclipse. Is the best way to Import the pom.xml and let Eclipse set everything up on it's own? Thanks for all the help anyone can provide.

You got it! I would follow the Getting Started instructions at http://docs.broadleafcommerce.org/core/ ... ng-started to get the project into Eclipse. If you want to also contribute to the framework, you can fork/clone that from https://github.com/BroadleafCommerce/BroadleafCommerce. You would import that in a similar way that you would with the demo site (meaning, import as 'Existing Maven Project').

Looking forward to seeing your pull requests!
