Hi @dhpatel177
I'm not sure where you were told you can create custom buttons like that using `editorTheme`, but you cannot do it that way. You can customise the appearance of the Deploy button, but not add other buttons.
You have two options:
1. modify the editor source code to add whatever you want and then rebuild it
2. use the `editorTheme.page.scripts` setting (you can see it at the top of your screenshot) to point at a custom javascript file that will get loaded into the editor. You can use that to dynamically add the button using jQuery.

How are you running node-red?
After editing any of the editor source code you will need to run `grunt build` in order to generate the `red.min.js` file that the editor loads.
Alternatively, run with `grunt dev` - this will run node-red for you and watch for any changes to the source code, automatically rebuilding the editor code if needed, or restarting Node-RED if any runtime code is modified.

So why has it not installed all of the `devDependencies`?
What version of npm have you got?
