How to use erpnext_com from Github?

Hello,
the ERPNext main site is open sourced in Frappé github. The question is: how can i use it? I tried to install as a bench app and site but nothing. Could you give me a clue?

You install it to bench and then to a site. Along with that app, you also need the ‘frappe_theme’ app in the same site to make the erpnext.com website work

@mlisb0n why would you want to do that?

I would like to provide cloud service just like erpnext.com. So i want to fork it.

@mlisb0n I think that is unethical to copy the main site of erpnext and business model verbatimly. And I also think its copyrighted. You need to ask @rmehta what is the implication about that before doing it.

The ERPNext website is the best Frappe website I’ve seen, I would like to see how it was built and copy-and-modify components of it. Has anyone but Frappe Tech been able to do this? How can I solve this?

When I install it I get this error

You can build website just like erpnext_com using website module in frappe and erpnext and build the functionalities required.
You can’t use erpnext_com to build the SaaS as it is because there are functionalities not included in the erpnext_com repo.
