How to open source code and modify gui of slic3r software?

I have installed slic3r for my MAC, using this link of git https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-OS-X .

This program ran properly. But now I want to open the source code of the software and modify it. If you know how to do that, please tell me.

I'm looking for advice on how to proceed with what I would like to do.

Thanks so much.

You probably want to read up on using git. You need to install git for your OS, then do something like:

git clone https://github.com/slic3r/Slic3r

Keep in mind, you pointed to the non-Prusa Edition of Slic3r, so it won't have the many Prusa enhancements.
