# Subscription Manager Local Development

If you need greater control over your Subscription Manager theme than what Ordergroove's in-browser editor can provide, try out our tool for local Subscription Manager development, `smi-serve`.

For full documentation and instructions to get started, see the [package README](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ordergroove/smi-serve) on NPM.

> **smi-serve is in alpha**
>
> This tool is currently in alpha, and you may encounter bugs or missing features. We'd love your feedback on what is working well and what isn't!
