Its recommended to get a Technical overview before installing and running the application. All that is needed to run the application is to start the server and point your browser to http://localhost:8081, which will serve the prebuilt client (if any). The client is not built if nothing appears or you get a "404 page not found" error when browsing localhost:8081. Follow the steps in running the client to build a client or to run a development version of the client

Running the server

   python mxcube3-server -r test/HardwareObjectsMockup.xml
