How to "Run make bootstrap" & "cd into the project repo " in short how do I use Kickstarter source code

[lalitsharmaking]

encountered this google service missing error when I try to run the app Kickstarter from GitHub in Android Studio.

Tried to look for answers and I found that I am supposed to run "make bootstrap" but I really can't quite understand how you do it (i'm still a novice in coding/android/github in general).

Here is the error:

File google-services.json is missing. The Google Services Plugin cannot function without it. Searched Location: C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\external\min21\debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\externalMin21\debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\debug\externalMin21\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\external\debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\external\min21\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\external\min21Debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\externalMin21\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\externalMin21Debug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\external\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\src\externalDebug\google-services.json C:\Users\naufa\AndroidStudioProjects\android-oss\app\google-services.json

It showed this after I cloned it using git bash
But Before it showed ( when I downloaded zip) - line missing/ can't run app into this directory

The scenario was:

I imported the project into Android Studio, when I try to run the app, the error above pops up. I browsed for solutions and found out that I need to run "make bootstrap" in some sort of terminal/CMD, but I have zero ideas on how to do that, heck i don't even know what bootstrap is.

There was a lot of different answers that i have no idea how to do since the answers was meant for non-beginners. I'm so confused, some help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm running Windows 11 64-bit, if there is any other info I should provide please do tell me. Here's the Clone link if anyone would like to open it in Android Studio = https://github.com/kickstarter/android-oss.git

I am completely new in this & I really can't understand anything so it would be very helpful if someone can explain in simple words to me

This has nothing to do with lazygit (a command line tool for interacting with git repositories) you should ask the question on their discussions page.

Brother I don't know much about how these things work I have recently started coding & using GitHub

jesseduffield's project lazygit and kickstarter's project android-oss are two different projects on github, and what you are trying to run has nothing to do with lazygit.

I see you have opened an issue on the android-oss project, that's what I meant you should do. I replied there, and we will try to debug it there.
