1- If we change the UI, then upon composer update command, do we need to make changes again? or Our changes will stay there?
whats the second way of doing changes in UI?
You don’t need to run the composer update command.
After making the changes in Ui run the following commands:-
composer dump:autoload
php artisan vendor:publish.
Thanks.

I download the files using composer and check the composer.json file, In it the basic requirements are
“php”: “^7.1.3”,
“laravel/framework”: “5.6.*”,
its looks like old, and in the documentation you said PHP: 7.2 or higher any updates is pending?
I check the migration files, its contains only the basic files.
I don’t get any code from web.php and api.php
The version that you need to have is ^7.1.3, the same is there in documentation too. May I know on which page have you seen the incorrect version?
Kindly download the latest release of bagisto from here https://bagisto.com/en/download/ and try installing again:

I’m trying to install Bagisto manually because UI installation stops on step Migration & Seed without showing errors.
When I execute command “php artisan migrate” the process stop with this error: In Concord.php line 265: Class ‘Webkul\Discount\Models\CatalogRuleProductsPriceProxy’ not found.
I suppose it is the error that is stopping the UI installation UI.
Could you help me? Thank you.
Go to the file location where there is a discount model(packages/Webkul/Discount/src/Models/CatalogRulesProductsPriceProxy.php) in your bagisto folder that you might have, and just rename the file name from ‘CatalogRulesProductsPriceProxy.php’ to ‘CatalogRuleProductsPriceProxy.php’
I tried the migrate and seed step and i got this message
