You can follow the manual installation
Follow this docs https://github.com/processing/p5.js-web-editor/blob/develop/contributor_docs/installation.md.
Don't use docker in case of windows it will not reflect the changes in localhost .

[Sudarshan-21]

@rahulrangers you should consider switching to other operating system. I did the same, it runs fine on linux

[rahulrangers]

i tried manual installation and it is working thanks for your help :)
