Quick Start

1. Install dependencies:

code
npm install

2. Start the UI (choose one method):

code
# Standard Next.js development server
   npm run ui
   
   # Clean start with port cleanup
   npm run ui:clean
   
   # Alternative Express server (if Next.js has issues)
   npm run ui:express
   
   # Desktop app (no web server required)
   npm run ui:electron

3. Access the web interface at:

code
http://localhost:3001

(Not required for the desktop app option)

UI Options

The project includes multiple ways to access the UI:

1. Next.js Development Server

bash
# Standard Next.js dev server
npm run ui

# Clean start (kills any existing processes using the ports)
npm run ui:clean

# Start with administrator privileges (for stubborn processes)
npm run ui:admin

2. Alternative Server Options

bash
# Simple Express server (more stable alternative)
npm run ui:express

# Basic HTML test page server
npm run ui:test

3. Desktop Application

For environments where web servers have connectivity issues:

bash
# Electron desktop application (no web server required)
npm run ui:electron

Troubleshooting UI Server

If you experience connection issues with the UI server:

1. Check your firewall settings

2. Run the firewall exception script: `npm run firewall:allow`

3. See the `scripts/docs/ui-connect-guide.md` for detailed connection troubleshooting

4. Try the desktop app option: `npm run ui:electron`

Utility Scripts

The repository includes several utility scripts to help with development and troubleshooting:

Essential Server Scripts (in scripts/server/)

  • `run-ui-clean.bat` - Main script to start the UI server (cleans up existing processes)
  • `run-ui-admin.bat` - Starts the UI server with administrator privileges
  • `serve-test-page.bat` - Serves a simple HTML test page on port 8000 to test connectivity
  • `run-express-server.bat` - Starts an Express server as an alternative to Next.js
  • `run-electron-app.bat` - Starts the Electron desktop application (no web server required)

Network Troubleshooting (in scripts/network/)

  • `check-connectivity.bat` - Comprehensive network connectivity diagnostics
  • `check-windows-firewall.bat` - Check firewall status and rules
  • `allow-node-firewall.bat` - Add Node.js to Windows Firewall exceptions
  • `test-network-connection.bat` - Test specific network connections
  • `test-port-3000.bat` - Test if port 3000 is available
  • `kill-port-3000.bat` - Kill any process using port 3000

Documentation (in scripts/docs/)
