Hi @sandipbhuyan,

I guess you're using `7.0.0-alpha1` tag of Kibana repository, please switch either to `master` or `7.0.0-alpha2` instead and run `yarn kbn bootstrap`.

Best,  
Oleg

Reading through these docs would be a good start:

- [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
- [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/pr-review.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/pr-review.html)

Then once you feel you're ready pick something easy to start with from the following list:

- [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A"good+first+issue"](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22)

Ping the person who opened the issue and check whether this is actionable.

Best,  
Oleg

Hmm, not sure where the problem is, don't have Windows machine handy to check.

Make sure that your repository is in the pristine state and up-to-date and then try again maybe.

Yeah, that's a good idea. Setting up Kibana dev environment under Linux/Mac is much more straightforward.
