+   ```bash
+   npm run build:copy:jsdeliver
+   ```
+## 3. Install frontend
+- Install the latest published version of `nc-lib-gui` in `packages/nocodb`, package version can be extracted from result of step 1 or copy it from `packages/nc-lib-gui/package.json`. While installing, add `-E` to install exact version of the package.

+     npm i -E nc-lib-gui@0.84.8
