Hello: 
   I'm not entirely sure what you're asking to do, but here's documentation on how to update the viewsets, including the checkout view itself.  You can modify 100% of the output seen by customers by modifying your custom viewset.    
https://hotcakescommerce....ting-Custom-Viewsets    If you're asking how to alter the source code for the checkout module itself, I would advise against this.
