# Forked Repo

{% hint style="warning" %}
By forking HollaEx Kit and changing the code base, you can no longer easily upgrade your exchange and will need to manually pull and merge conflicts.

Because of this, forking the repo is not recommended for the majority of operators unless you have some expertise on the team and understand the potential side effects and consequences.
{% endhint %}

### Forked Repository

This method offers complete manual customization of the [source code](https://github.com/bitholla/hollaex-kit). By forking the HollaEx code that your site uses, you have essentially complete control over the front end.

In order to get going with this method, please message <support@hollaex.com> who will assist in setting this up.
