I downloaded Umbraco 14 from GitHub source to explore.
I found an error in the back office for the members section that I want to try and fix locally.
I can't find how it's been built and how I would get to that page.
Could anyone point me in the right area as I placed a few breakpoints around the project where I thought the members area could be around but non we're hit?

Thanks

To run umbraco, we first need to initialize the client git submodule:
Execute git submodule update --init to get the files into Umbraco.Web.UI.Client project
If you are going to work on the Backoffice, you can either go to the Umbraco.Web.UI.Client folder and check out a new branch or set it up in your IDE, which will allow you to commit to each repository simultaneously:
Rider: Preferences -> Version Control -> Directory Mappings -> Click the '+' sign
If you get a white page delete Umbraco.Cms.StaticAssets\wwwroot\umbraco folder and run npm ci && npm run build:for:cms inside Umbraco.Web.UI.Client folder to clear out any leftover files from older versions.c
