I'm new to Odoo, and we're using the SaaS enterprise v14 internally but are going to adapt the community edition for some other purposes. I have some coding background, but not in Python and so this is something I'm starting to get to grips with.

So, a basic question: As I have installed the community edition on my laptop, is the source source already there by default or do I need to do something else to get it? And if it's already there, which folder can I expect to find it in.

Many thanks for any advice you can give.

Hi,
The odoo community source code will be inside the local machine where you have installed the odoo. The location will depend on how you installed the odoo and the operating system that you are using.

if you are using the Linux/ubutnu the source code will be inside the opt folder mostly, if you are using windows check the program files.


If you are looking to edit the source code, it is not recommended way, instead create custom module/addons and make the changes you need.

If you like to odoo custom development, see this videos explaining the same from scratch:  How To Create Module In Odoo 14 || Odoo 14 Development

For setting development environment, configure odoo with pycharm IDE: How to Configure Odoo With Pycharm

Thanks

Thank you - what we're looking to do is dramatically simplify existing screens for accounting etc. and optimise it for mobile. Hence thinking that editing code (to remove functionality) would be more straightforward than building a new accounting module from scratch. Would welcome your views on whether there is an easier/better way for us to do this.

the issue with this approach is that, we cannot say that odoo source code will not change again, if you take odoo14 now and edit the source code, there will be new new code additions like bug fixing, security improvement coming in coming days, so it will mess up the things.

You can see the changes coming daily looking at here: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commits/14.0. Even yesterday there are 5 commits to odoo14

Thank you - I'm thinking to acquire Odoo Studio for community and do it that way instead.

Odoo Studio is available only for Odoo Enterprise, not for the Community Edition.

I've found a third-party Studio for Community, so I'm thinking of using that. I'm trying out the Enterprise one on a trial basis first, to see if it will do what I want.
