I know that i can download Tor Browser and use it as a regular browser with a touch of anonymity. but, if i want to change a few things in Tor i can change in .torrc file like the ExitNode, EntryNodeetc.. as i have here in Tor's manual:

https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en

but, if i want to change a way more series things i need to change it from the source code for example the numbers of Nodes-hop make 1 one or 8 hop's:

after changing the source code i and to install it:

./configure && make install

after changing thw source code as i want it compiled without any error's(Ubuntu 16.04 VMware).

after the compiling im in kind of in dead end don't know what to do.

i want to use the source code that i edit as a i use in regular Tor-Browser can i do that?

Thank you!
