I want to change [kibana/src/ui/public/doc\_table/](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/bc64b9a3aa28949ffa9390b058e4ec0cfdf15fce/src/ui/public/doc_table) component, add some styles and few functions. I changed the code and restarted **Kibi** but nothing happened. I tried to run `npm run build`, its finish with error on "\__build:shasums_" task but still nothing happened and also its take a lot of time to compile, is it possible to recompile only one component? Or how to dealt with it?

PS: Also I tried to add styles to that component via plugins but unsuccessfully.

Hello,

if you are trying to build _Kibi_, I think you should address that question, to the SirenSolution support. I unfortunately don't know exactly what modifications they made to "Vanilla Kibana", that I could provide you a useful answer here - sorry ☹

Cheers,  
Tim

I didn't found how to clear cache. Then I just remove content from /optimize folder and that make Kibi rebuild cache. Then my changes from doc\_table component became to website.
