Lemmy UI frontend contribution (lemmy.world)

Hi, I would like to contribute to lemmys front end UI

I have some experience in frontend development with little experience in backend development.

Is it possible for me to spin up a local front end that is run off an already running backend? Or is the only way to run a backend on my own pc?

I am using windows, and the contribution docs don't mention anything about windows, it has commands to run for Linux/Mac. Would anyone be able to assist?

Is there a more appropriate community for this question? Couldn't find one so hopefully this is good enough here

Thanks

For anyone that comes across this, I used docker to run the backend and then modify the yml config to point to my local front-end
