Prerequisites

We highly recommend that you install the executable installers for your platform for an easy setup. You can find it at the releases tab where each platform has an executable and a readme file.

Starting the application

To start the server open the start-up file that relates to your platform. If you would like to do it manually, type the following in your terminal at your project directory:

1. First build the project: npm run build
2. Then start the server: npm start

Troubleshooting

Permission Errors

If you run into access denied permission errors even when using sudo, run the following: rm -rf ./node_modules; npm i

Popup Blocker Preventing Node Creation

If you clicked "prevent this from opening new dialog boxes" and can no longer create new nodes, your browser's popup blocker is preventing the application's input dialogs from appearing.
