    First: fork the Cashmere project on GitHub

    1
    Navigate to [https://cashmere.healthcatalyst.net/home](https://cashmere.healthcatalyst.net/home)
    2
    Click on the GitHub icon in the upper right corner.
    3
    In the GitHub project, click "Sign in" (or click Sign up and create an account).
    4
    Click "Fork"

    Next: clone your fork to your computer

    5
    In your forked project, click the dropdown arrow next to Code.
    6
    Click the copy icon to copy the URL.
    7
    Open a File Explorer window and create a new folder to hold your cloned project (make it easy to find again).
    8
    Right-click on your new folder
    9
    Click Open in Windows Terminal. If this option isn't available to you, you could choose Git Bash (this should show up on the same context menu if git is installed on your computer).
    10
    If using Windows Terminal, type "git clone" and then press [[ctrl]] + [[v]] to paste the URL you just copied from your fork on GitHub. If using Git Bash, type "git clone" and then right-click and choose Paste. Press Enter.
    11
    After git finishes cloning your fork, close the Windows or Git Bash terminal.

    Finally: explore your cloned project in VS Code

    12
    Go back to File Explorer and right-click on your folder.
    13
    Depending on your version of Windows, you may need to click Show more options to expand the full menu.
    14
    Click Open with Code.
    15
    In VS Code, you may be prompted to install Angular. If so, approve the installation. Then, expand the root project folder.
    16
    Expand the src folder.
    17
    Expand the app folder.
